My RAM is messing up. About last week I got a notice saying my computer was low on memory so I just restarted my computer and it was fine, but now it randomly does it and it will cause my computer to slow or just freeze completely. It will show my RAM at 40% and then just randomly shoot up to 95+%. Does anyone know how I can prevent this?

what it is doing is I won't even be using my computer and it says the my computer is low on memory and it slowly just rise up until the computer freezes. My memory usually starts at 45% and then it goes up to like 95% once that message comes up

then get rid of 1 of them as you don't need it & should free up some ram too.
