Windows – Task Manager does not show memory usage

task-managerwindows 7

Using Windows 7 the Task Manager does not show memory usage. I selected different memory columns, none of them worked, and I've tried showing processes from all users. It doesn't slow down my computer.

I can't post a picture but it's like this: only shows K, without actual number of memory usage.

Image Name--------User Name----CPU----Memory (Private Working Set)------Description
___________________________________________________________________________________________
System -----------SYSTEM ------01-------------------------------K-------NT Kernel &system
___________________________________________________________________________________________
Smss.exe--------- SYSTEM -----00-------------------------------K-------Win Session Manager
___________________________________________________________________________________________
Wininit.exe------ SYSTEM ------00-------------------------------K-------Win Start-up Applic

It's pretty much the same as this thread I found on Google.

I had the same problem. All that I had to do is:

  1. Open Control Panel
  2. Click Change keyboard or other input methods
  3. Click Formats tab on top
  4. Click Customize Formats/Additional Settings
  5. Click Reset
  6. Click Apply then OK
  7. Restart Computer

Now after restart try opening Task Manager and see if helped. This resetting solved the exact same problem for me.
