After a restart with no apps installed, Windows 11 used 2.4GB on a 4GB VM and 3.7GB on a 16GB VM. Microsoft’s documentation explains why Windows keeps more pages in RAM when memory is abundant, what Available and Cached mean, and when high RAM usage turns into a problem. Compressed memory read 0MB on all three.

Weeks after September's update broke File History, Remote Desktop and File Explorer, Microsoft's 25H2 status page tells users to move to 26H2. We break down every fix from KB5129195 to KB5127936, the USB audio bug Microsoft hasn't fixed, and why skipping 26H2 won't help.

Windows boss Pavan Davuluri says 8GB is enough for everyday work, backed by new memory optimizations. We trace Microsoft's shifting RAM advice from Copilot+ PCs and 32GB gaming guides to today's $429 Lenovo deal at Walmart, and why a $949.99 Surface now gets 8GB where it once got 16GB.

Microsoft has shared the test conditions behind every 8GB RAM claim, from a 900MB cut in memory growth to Widgets loading on demand. We put them next to our own 26H2 test, where an 8GB laptop's RAM use after a restart fell from 5GB to 3.3GB, and explain how to get build 26300.9818.

March Rogers confirmed on X that Optimize Drives is "on our list" after a user asked for WinUI 3 or a move into Settings. We explain what the decades-old tool still does for HDDs and SSDs, and where it fits in Microsoft's ongoing WinUI 3 and Control Panel cleanup in Windows 11.

Microsoft doesn’t care if you hate OneDrive, kills Windows 11’s best local way to...
Microsoft confirmed "PC-to-PC Migration is no longer available" just a year after launching it. We compare what the local Wi-Fi transfer tool moved (any folder, 118GB in Microsoft's own demo) with Windows Backup's five folders and 5GB of free OneDrive storage.

A year after Meta killed the native app, WhatsApp's WebView2 wrapper still lags. I tested WhatsApp Web, the Edge-installed web app (579.6MB hiding behind a 2.5MB entry), Smart Connect streaming at 83.5MB and Telegram at 340.1MB, and asked why Meta can't build a native app.
