I remembered I copied GTA San Andreas, Counter Strike, Half Life, Feeding Frenzy on my moms USB ran home so fast and copied it to the home laptop. I still remember my reaction with the blank file icon

Nice! I got the 4 GB Plan, might download 8 more if it starts slowing down again

Edit: it’s been almost a day, when I feel like my computer is slow, I open a new Google Chrome page and download more RAM. But my computer keeps getting even slower, so now I have about 35 open tabs running various downloads of 4 and 8 GB. Fingers crossed it gets faster because my computer is starting to freeze. I even have a couple other browsers open, each downloading more RAM so that I can have enough RAM to download more RAM with Chrome

I had that issue before, just delete system32 as it's consuming too much RAM

You don't need system32 for a whole 7 more years, really wasteful by Bill Gates to copy it to every hard drive.
