Hello!
To start off, my Windows 10 Settings show that I have 16GB of RAM installed:

As does my control panel:

As well, I ordered my computer directly from Lenovo with exactly 16GB of RAM, and have not changed that amount. For some background information, I have never observed my computer using over 8GB of RAM, and I have had it for a year, despite when having both Autodesk Inventor and Autodesk 360 Fusion open at the same time. When I check the "Users" tab of Task Manager (I only have one account - the one displayed), it shows that I only have ~4GB of RAM (using simple math - 1024(amount it says is being used)x4(Says 25% of RAM is being used)=4096).
Here's TM (Users tab) saying I have ~4GB of RAM (Instead of 16),

And here's TM (Users tab) saying that I have ~8GB of RAM (Instead of 16, once again):

That number switches in between saying that 1024 MB is 25% and 2048MB is 25% (Basically, the computer is saying that in between 1 and 2 GB of RAM is a quarter of its total RAM, when in reality, it should say that 25% of my RAM is equal to 4GB (4096MB).
Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening? I think that something is going on with the amount of RAM my computer thinks that it is able to use, but I'm not sure - would I be correct to say that?
Thank you so much!
