I don't know why while my laptop is sitting idle , it uses a lot of RAM , searching in task manager I found the process svchost.exe. , how can I remove it or is it normal. I have 3GB RAM. and my gadget shows RAM usage over 70%.I have listed all high usage processes shown in task manager.

edit

i have also found chrome stealing my memory , while only one tab of chrome is open. enter image description here

  • You can try to use process explorer (https://technet.microsoft.com/pl-pl/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx) to investigate what is exactly hidden under the svchost. Your usage is nothing much out of the ordinary but if you are curious - investigate with mentioned tool. – mnmnc Jul 15 '15 at 11:21

    Just what I see there your using less then 135MB. Where is the high memory usage exactly? – Ramhound Jul 15 '15 at 11:22
  • svchost.exe.Its a system proccess and host multiple Windows Services(shared service proccess) anyway its duplicate as @DavidPostill said. – Francisco Tapia Jul 15 '15 at 11:28
  • Chrome's open multiple instances, and redoing the @Ramhound question, Where is the high memory usage exactly? – Francisco Tapia Jul 15 '15 at 11:35
  • @ Francisco: chrome is not opened in multiple instances , only one tab is opened. – R K Jul 15 '15 at 11:41

Some Programs(Like viruses) to don't be closed they rename them with svchost.exe. But I recommend to scan your Computer.Don't try to close them if they are normal i guess it can damage your computer.And Yes Chrome is using Too much Ram in my computer too.
