Check your page files for ones you didn't create...
When I was doing some routine backup for offsite I discovered that there was a 10GB page file on one of my non-boot NVMe s
I went to Menu/System/Advanced and discovered that sure enough it was there and in use. I deleted it, did the obligatory reboot and checked again - normal.
No idea how(or when - sorry I did not screen shot it) or why this happened but you might check your system in Advanced.
normal for me: Note 1GB is too small for most folks - I have 32GB fast OC memory.

A page file (or swap file) is used by an operating system to swap out portions of RAM to disk when it runs low on memory. This allows your system to handle more applications or processes than it could otherwise fit into RAM alone. However, if it grows too large, it can eat into your available storage space.
