Using 4GB of RAM on 32 bit Win 10?

Is that recent? Last time I checked it there wasn't a lockout period anymore. Just a few things you can't directly do and the "Active Windows" watermark in the bottom right.

If you can essentially update and have access to it like paid customers, this is a slap in the face. Why would anyone pay for Windows 10 if there is little to no difference.
 
They essentially gave it away for free to everyone who had Win7, 8 or 8.1. Why should they force people to pay more now?

Because it was a 1 year offer, if you didn't take the offer over the course of those 12 months, why should you still get it for FREE?
 
Applications utilize more RAM in a 64 bit environment, you'd effectively get a similar experience with an extra 750 MB on 64 bit as you would without the 750 MB on 32 bit.

It'd be worth throwing some more RAM into that system.

So what the heck is the benefit of 64 bit then?

But might it resolve my problem of Firefox running out of memory and not being able to save the session? I understand that maybe there won't be a performance increase, but would it help with this?
 
No.

Only 2 things you should be doing are:

1. Leave as is, nothing can be done!

2. Upgrade as we mentioned to a more modern amount of RAM and 64-bit O/S

If you go to 64-bit, your gonna want to go to minimum 8GB
 
You have two options:

Decrease usage
Increase resources

I'm not looking to spend any money

That only leaves you with one option.

In all honesty it's faster to generate a new tab to the site you want to go back to than having to sort through 100 tabs.
