In order to understand why your computer is using so much memory, you'll need to go through some basic troubleshooting steps. The first step is to restart your PC and the game itself. This will help reset any changes that may have been made to the game that could be causing the issue.

If you're running Windows, press the Windows key + R on your keyboard to open the Run dialog box. Type in "shutdown /r" to restart your computer.

If you're running the game in Steam, you can use the Steam overlay to close and restart the game. Just press Shift + Tab while in-game to open the overlay, and then click the Exit button. The game will automatically restart when you launch it again.

If you're running the game in Steam, you can access the Steam menu by pressing Shift + Tab while in-game. This will open the Steam overlay.

Once you've accessed the Steam menu, click Settings > Downloads > Clear download cache. This will clear any cached files that may be causing the issue.

To repair the game files, you'll need to access the Steam Library. To do this, click the Library tab in the Steam overlay.

Once in the Steam Library, right-click on Hogwarts Legacy and select Properties. Then, click on the Local Files tab and select Verify integrity of game files. This will check for any missing or corrupted files and replace them.

If you're running Windows, press the Windows key + R on your keyboard to open the Run dialog box. Then, type in "taskmgr" and press Enter to open the Task Manager.

In the Task Manager, you can see a list of all the active tasks running on your computer. Look for any tasks that are related to the game and right-click them to select End task. This will close down any background tasks that may be causing the high memory usage.

If you're running Windows, press the Windows key + I on your keyboard to open the Settings window. Then, click on Updates and Security.

In the Windows Updates section, click the Check for updates button to see if any updates are available for your graphics driver.
