1] CleanMem
One program many recommend and which works with a difference is CleanMem.
CleanMem adds a task in the Task Scheduler to run every 15 minutes after startup and after the task is created or modified. Once the task is triggered, it runs the CleanMem.exe file, provided the system is idle.
As one of our forum club members writes: You can also run it on demand from the context menu.
