Moderators Nergal Posted April 27, 2021 Moderators Share Posted April 27, 2021 No and ram defragging is pretty much useless imo ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Willy2 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 - Those "Recover Memory" programs sometimes use very odd "tricks" to "recover memory". But there's one program that's absolutely safe because it uses a feature in Windows itself. If you want to reduce memory usage (and that includes keeping the filecache small) then install PcWinTech's Cleanmem. https://www.pcwintech.com/cleanmem System setup: http://speccy.piriform.com/results/gcNzIPEjEb0B2khOOBVCHPc A discussion always stimulates the braincells !!!

Willy2 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 - Agree. The user can't "defrag" the memory. Because memory usage is fragmented by design and memory management doesn't enable the user to manipulating the usage of the memory. Other than with a number of APIs available in Windows.

centurion Posted April 29, 2021 Author Share Posted April 29, 2021 Thanks ..I just installed cleanmem...don't see any icon on desktop...so is there anything I have to do to set it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy2 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 - The main program is started by Task Scheduler every 15 minutes. After "Cleaning" the memory it automatically closes. You can change the timing in Task Scheduler. - Run "mini_monitor.exe". In that program you make changes about how the program behaves. make a shortcut to that file and place it on the desktop.
