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,

    You should be ashamed for your answer, where do you see a 3rd party program using so much memory?

    I have 16gb of ram and with 2gb allocated towards browsing and 300 towards Visual Studio Code it runs at 89-95% RAM.
    It shows how Microsoft has lost all care for consumer products and only cares for businesses where people get 1500 euro laptops to write excel all day.

    You know the funniest part about all this, If I start up a game I'm having 0 problems playing that game, and the high end games I'm playing require more than 4gb RAM.

    This shows windows is just grabbing extra ram to use for its own purposes. Probably spying and sending everything back to the office.

    If I wasn't in IT professionally I would've refused to work with this product. ( And I'm advising people to drop windows daily now )
