I've been experiencing frequent slowdowns and crashes with my programs. My internet browser often warns me that I've run out of memory. I have 32GB of RAM (2x16GB sticks), which makes me think there could be a RAM issue, but I'm not sure how to diagnose this properly. What steps can I take to troubleshoot and resolve these problems?

Just to clarify what the last user mentioned about storage: they're referring to your SSD or hard drive space, not your RAM. A good way to gauge your memory usage is to open Task Manager. There, you can see how much RAM is free and what's actually consuming it.

If you're running into memory issues, the first thing to check is your total storage space. Sometimes, a full drive can lead to performance drops. You might want to check your storage capacity in Windows—if your SSD or HDD is nearly full, that could be a contributing factor.
