Windows 10’s RAM Compression #232

After I launched this preset (https://pastebin.com/wukgFnXx, release 3.6) Task Manager reporting 0 MB of memory usage every time. SysMain service is running. Fresh installation of Windows 10 (April 28). How to reenable this feature? (by default it using 15.3 MB)

The compression is still enabled. You've just managed to optimize your system well enough, so it doesn't need to compress anything. The biggest contributors are DisableBackgroundApps, UninstallMsftBloat and UninstallThirdPartyBloat tweaks as they remove the ModernUI apps or block them from autostarting. ModernUI apps are the those which are normally suspended and compressed in RAM instead of being swapped out to disk.
