open task manager and select the processes tab and this will show which apps are running and the amount of memory each are using.

Hi Experts,

In a case like this (see attached) where I have the highest private working memory set something called TrustedInstaller.exe..
Is it ok to go and just kill the process? or what else can I do to get rid of this?

Thanks,
Ben
