Windows 10 photo app eating up RAM

I noticed that Microsoft Photos is using about 230MB ram even though I am not even using that program.

What's strange is if I open that program during the high RAM usage, the RAM usage drops significantly.

Any ideas?
 
There is no uninstall option as it is one of those built-in Windows 10 apps (unless you mean via Powershell command).

I just went to privacy settings and disabled all background apps. Hopefully that will help.
 
It appears to constantly update and load picture thumbnails into memory. Gotta admit, the program is very fast.
