windows 10 home 32 bit memory
was wondering why my win 10 home 32 bit was so slow and when I was checking for a update I clicked on OS BUILD info and low and behold there it was 16 gigs of memory available BUT only 2 gigs usable...

win 10 pro ,version 1903 installed 11/25/19,,os build 1903.1
- HotCakeXNov 26, 2019MVPOh that's not insider.
anyway, is there any reason why you're using 32bit OS while you have 16GB RAM?
also try updating your Windows to the latest version, 1909 aka november update.
through Windows update or from here

well first I thought that the version of windows was the version of insider where do I find that?... and the reason is way back when windows 10 was a theory and I got on as a beta tester I've always wanted to find the differences between versions so I could help friends decide what to buy,, ie: it all started with windows 3.11 for workgroups and dos 6.0.. the reason for 16 gigs is I also run win 7 pro and win 10 pro on different hard drives and they will use all of it for media presentations and video editing,,, BUT THAT STILL DOESN'T ANSWER WHY windows 10 pro 32 bit version ONLY USES 2 GIGS?? like I said even windows XP used 3.8, but thanks for the reply anyway
