Memory Issue with Game

[Sniper434]

not sure if this is the right place to ask this but i need help with my problem

for some reason when i turn on my comp after it being off for the night, i open up WoW(World of Warcraft) and within 30sec the game starts to use up almost all of my ram up to 80% and i have 16gig ram, and i know its not supposed to do this and it used to not.

any help would be great

What has changed?

Windows manages ram and keeps things around in anticipation of possible reuse.
If you do not have any hard fault page rate, performance will not be impacted.
Still, since something has changed, you might want to find out.
Run malwarebytes free edition to see if you have accumulated malware.
If you are on windows 10, try to turn off instrumentation.

Lastly, I find it better to not power off, but use sleep to ram(not hibernate).
Sleep/wake is only a few seconds.
