JRT High Memory usage

[Gt-truth]

on new version of JRT it using a lot of my labtop Memory at some scanning stages ! so can you fix that ?

It would help thisisu if you could provide your computer specs (a Speccy snapshot will do the trick), as well as how much RAM JRT.exe is using, and at what stage exactly you see these peaks in RAM usage.

at Scan shortcuts and at scan web browser I think so not 100 % sure and by the way what is Speccy ?

Speccy is a small program (also have a portable version) which gives you information (both short and detailled) on your computer hardware and also information on your system.

Speccy - Publish a snapshot

Follow the instructions below to download and install Speccy, then to publish a snapshot of your system information:

• Download and install Speccy from Piriform (the download will start automatically a few seconds after clicking on the Speccy link);

  Note: You can opt-out the Google Toolbar installation if you want;

• Once Speccy is installed, launch the program and give it a good minute to load all your system information;

• After that, click on the File menu in the top left corner, and select Publish Snapshot;

• A window will appear asking you to confirm your decision to publish a snapshot. Click on Yes;

• A new window will appear after, with a URL link to your snapshot. Click on Copy to Clipboard button to copy that URL to  your clipboard, then paste it in your next reply and post it;

I'm concerned about the temperatures here. 84 °C on CPU for example is very hot.

I don't think it's a hardware issue either, while 3GB RAM is considered low nowadays, I think the main culprit is the fact that you have so many little third party programs installed and running together. 

• C:\Program Files\PhoXo\PhoXo.exe
• C:\Program Files\FreeAlarmClock\FreeAlarmClock.exe
• C:\Program Files\Blueberry Software\BB FlashBack Pro 5\FBO\FTSUploadAgent.exe
• C:\Program Files\CaptureWiz\Pro\CaptureWiz.exe
• C:\Program Files\ACD Systems\ACDSee\19.0\ACDSeeQV19.exe

.. and the list just goes on and on.

I'd recommend uninstalling such types of programs that you don't use and/or keep the number of programs you have running at any given time at a minimum -- closing them when you are not using them.

As far as JRT, the Browser and Shortcut scans do typically take the longest for most users (especially if you have more than just Internet Explorer) so this is kind of expected behavior.
