Clearing standby memory while downloading

Post by StyggaMargareta »

Hey, I have a rather simple question

Just wondering if it's OK to keep automatically clearing the standby memory whenever it fills up, while a big game/update is being installed (on steam for example) or is it preferred to wait until the installation is complete and THEN clear up the memory.
Or even, should I add these launchers like steam and origin to the exclusion list for this purpose?

Answers appreciated! =)

Hi, I never noticed anything bad if the memory is cleaned when downloading / updating.
Adding steam/origin to the exclusion list will stop ISLC to work as long as these launcher are open.So probably not good if you plan to play BFx and want to clean.
