Hallo everyone

I’m creating this thread to find out why my internet usage is so much different on different programmes. For example, when I download windows updates the max data usage my PC uses is 0.9Mbps, but when I watch YouTube videos(using Google Chrome) it uses all the available bandwidth which is 4Mbps (Not at the same time, each one running completely alone.) Is this normal? Is there a way that I can let other programs use all the bandwidth as well?

Any explanation on this would be appreciated.
Thanks.
