I've noticed that my laptop is idling at 53% memory usage even though I have 16GB of RAM. The Steam Client WebHelper takes up the most memory at 250MB while closed, and I also see the 'Anti Malware Service Executable' running. Does anyone have any tips to reduce this memory usage?

It's pretty normal for Windows to allocate memory this way. It uses more RAM for processes that need it, and when you start something more demanding, it can lower the RAM for other tasks. Also, Windows uses some RAM to cache your storage, which can adjust as needed. So don’t stress about it, everything sounds fine!
I thought it was 16GB but it shows up as 15.3, right? Thanks for clarifying!
