Evening all just complete a new build and have Lr Classic 12.4 installed with Windows 11. Just having Lr open I'm hovering around 85% Memory Usage. You can see my system from below, not sure if something a miss or not. I'm using the integrated graphics card for now, but still - I haven't seen this much RAM usage from my 10 year old 4700 w/ 16GB RAM. Thoughts??

Use Task Manager to see what else is using up memory besides LrC

New build and LrC using lots of memory upon launch — have you checked LrC to make sure it is not doing any one of these things?

I am asking you to check to see if these functions are off. Simply saying "I never use them" (or similar words) is not checking, and not sufficient.
