whenever i render a few preview frames on AE 23 the previous frames regress to unrendered, it's really annoying and makes editing really hard yesterday an orange pop up warning about my RAM usage made it even worse, i tried to clear my storage but the clips just ended up getting stuck and it was really frustrating i still haven't found a way to fix it even after millions of articles etc ive cleared all my cache, cleared everything else and nothing down below are my memory settings, please help! thank you!

You have not provided any actual screenshots of the behavior, no system info, no details about the projects. That's pretty much useless. That said, your system doesn't meet the minimum system requirements (System requirements | After Effects) and I get the feeling that you may also need to brush up on your understanding of RAM previews (Preview without rendering in After Effects), which I guess is what you are seeing - AE simply invalidates the previous RAM cache to generate new frames because your system has so little memory to store them permanently. Anyway, more info is required for a definitive assessment.
