I tried everything to make it go down by following Youtube videos, suggestions on google, etc, but it still doesn't work. Only thing that managed to work was downloading Wise Memory Optimizer which did help.

And when I go to Task manager > Users, I see that I only use 200mb-ish (no apps, basically idle) and when I go to performance, I see 2.5gb is in use, why?

Note that I have 4gb ram

Empty RAM is wasted RAM. Let the system do its job. – Tetsujin Jun 14 '23 at 07:30

System processes use memory too, so the users tab is useless – Jaromanda X Jun 14 '23 at 07:59
