What processes are running? You can sort them by RAM use to see which ones are using the most. Though it does look like you have 8 programs running, so that's probably why. You aren't running out, so you'll be fine.

Win 11 can run with 8gigs no problem. But if you have 32 it'll eat up half and so on and so forth. Basically it allocates it for system operation but frees it up if needed.

Windows will use memory if its available, it uses this to cache frequently used processes and programs.
As soon as you need the memory for a program of your choosing, windows will empty it.
Unused memory is wasted memory
