I noticed today that I had extremely high memory usage on windows 10 and couldn't find any process that uses a lot of memory.
Here is a screenshot of my memory usage:
And here is a screenshot of poolmon.exe
Can someone please tell me what is causing such high memory usage? Thanks!

ok, there are several pool tags that are too high.
The
PROC
usage comes fromwscsvc.dll!SetDefenderStatus
calls from the security center service in Windows.The
toke
usageMpCmdRun.exe
(Microsoft Malware Protection Command Line Utility), which is also Windows Defender.The
io
tag usage comes from the tool Agent.exe which calls the driver EuPipe.dll. Those files are part ofEaseUS Todo Backup
("C:\Program Files (x86)\EaseUS\Todo Backup\bin\Agent.exe"
)the
SeTd
tag is also used by MpCmdRun.exe.1 large part of the memory usage is the PageTable. But I can't see which process caused it. We had such issues already here and some 3rd party tool caused it. Disable all 3rd party tools/drivers until you found the program that causes the high page table usage.
