High ram usage while idle on a windows 11 pc

Just like the title goes, my laptop gets about 50~60 ram usage while idle, even though it has 16 gigs of ram. Tried checking with the task manager doesn't seem to spot anything going on. Also, I've tried fixing the registry, disabling startup applications, defragmenting drives, turning off Sysmain, as said on the Internet, but they all didn't change anything. Is there any way to fix this while not clean installing windows again?

My laptop is currently on Windows 11 build 22000,

    I have the same issue - it is a brand new laptop with i3 12th gen 1215U processor, with 8 GB RAM.

    The RAM usage is always 60% or more -- with no other application running.

    Even the CPU usage shoots up randomly with no apparent reason. Here I have only one firefox tab open and nothing else.

    In the user tab, the total RAM used is around1.2 GB under my user ID. Still the usage is 67%.

    1 download MS \ sysinternals autoruns - check services \ starts

    2 download MS \ sysinternals rammap - check RAM for files and system

    3 disable hibernation and Fast Startup by GUI or CLI

    reboot @check

    Hello everyone,

    My laptop is showing more than 90% usage all the time without opening Chrome. I am attaching a screenshot here. My total RAM is 16 GB. Please help me.
