If your Windows PC feels mysteriously sluggish or refuses to load more programs, it may have run out of working memory. When that happens, PCs often fall back to using virtual memory, which can be much slower. Here’s how to see which programs are eating up all your memory.
如果您的Windows PC感觉异常呆滞或拒绝加载更多程序,则可能是内存不足。 发生这种情况时,PC通常会退回到使用虚拟内存,这可能会慢得多。 这是查看哪些程序耗尽了所有内存的方法。
It’s worth clarifying that we’re only talking about memory as in RAM, which is temporary working room for your programs, not disk storage space. The best tool to see which Windows programs might be using too much RAM is a utility called Task Manager.
值得澄清的是,我们只是在谈论内存,就像在RAM中一样,它是程序的临时工作空间,而不是磁盘存储空间。 查看哪些Windows程序可能使用过多RAM的最佳工具是一个名为Task Manager的实用程序。
First, let’s open the Task Manager. Right-click the taskbar, and in the menu that pops up, select “Task Manager.” (You can also press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and select “Task Manager” from the screen that appears.)
首先,让我们打开“任务管理器” 。 右键单击任务栏,然后在弹出的菜单中选择“任务管理器”。 (您也可以按Ctrl + Alt + Delete并从出现的屏幕中选择“任务管理器”。)

If you see the simple Task Manager interface, click the “More Details” button.
如果您看到简单的任务管理器界面,请单击“更多详细信息”按钮。

In the full Task Manager window, navigate to the “Processes” tab. You’ll see a list of every application and background task running on your machine. Collectively, those programs are called “processes.”
在完整的“任务管理器”窗口中,导航到“进程”选项卡。 您将看到计算机上运行的每个应用程序和后台任务的列表。 这些程序统称为“流程”。
To sort the processes by which one is using the most memory, click the “Memory” column header. The process using the largest percentage of RAM will move to the top of the list.
要对使用最多内存的进程进行排序,请单击“内存”列标题。 使用最大百分比RAM的进程将移至列表顶部。

In this window, it’s a good idea to look for programs that might be using a suspiciously large amount of memory. What counts as “suspicious” varies based on how you typically use your machine. If you frequently render 4K video projects or run complex computer games, it might be no surprise if one of those processes is using a large amount of memory (perhaps even several gigabytes).
在此窗口中,查找可能正在使用可疑的大量内存的程序是个好主意。 根据您通常使用计算机的方式,什么被视为“可疑”。 如果您经常渲染4K视频项目或运行复杂的计算机游戏,那么其中一个进程正在使用大量内存(甚至可能是几GB)可能就不足为奇了。
But if a process you don’t recognize is using the memory, or if a memory-hogging application has become unresponsive and you can’t exit the program by normal means, you might want to consider killing the process. To do that, select the process from the list in Task Manager and click “End Task.”
但是,如果您不认识的进程正在使用内存,或者如果占用内存的应用程序变得无响应,并且您无法通过常规方式退出程序,则可能要考虑终止该进程。 为此,请从“任务管理器”中的列表中选择进程,然后单击“结束任务”。

After that, the offending program will close (sometimes it takes a few moments). If it doesn’t, try restarting your machine, which can temporarily solve a variety of problems, including a runaway application that might be using more memory than it’s supposed to.
之后,有问题的程序将关闭(有时需要一些时间)。 如果不是这样,请尝试重新启动计算机,这可以暂时解决各种问题,其中包括一个失控的应用程序可能正在使用比预期更多的内存。
If you’re having trouble with running out of memory on a regular basis, it might be time to consider adding more RAM to your PC, if possible. Good luck!
如果您经常遇到内存不足的问题,则可能是时候考虑向PC添加更多RAM了。 祝好运!
