I am trying to get the Cached physical memory like what is displayed in the task manager.

I was able to get the physical memory and the free memory using

System.Management.ManagementClass(Win32_OperatingSystem)

but i am suck on getting the cached.

Any insight on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated

I am trying to do this in a windows form that will be running on Microsoft servers.

I dont need to cache anything i just need to have the same cache value that is shown in the task manager.

Hey thanks for the reply, visual studio doesnt seem to want to import the namespace required for this and if i download the dll and add a reference to it i still cant get this name space to work.

I read somewhere while looking into this that only the full install of VS will have this namespace.

Is there any other way to get this information?
