You have a lot of things running, and you only have 2 GB of RAM. It's pretty normal to go over 50% with only that much RAM. I wouldn't be too worried about it.

You could always add another 2 GB or RAM if your motherboard would support it and you would have a bit more free memory. Don't add more than 2 GB, though, since you have 32 bit Windows. More than 4 GB won't be used by the OS.

And welcome to the forums.

Solve your issue by getting rid of Tune up Utility 2014. Those programs are snake oil. Let windows manage itself. I think Microsoft knows how to do maintenance on their OS more then a company creating a program in their basement.
