Why each option

The msinfo32.exe command launches the System Information utility, which provides a comprehensive overview of the computer's hardware and software configuration, including detailed memory information.

Asysedit.exe

sysedit.exe is a legacy utility used to edit system configuration files like AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS; it does not display current memory statistics.

Bmsinfo32.exeCorrect

The msinfo32.exe command launches the System Information utility, which provides a detailed summary of hardware resources, including the total physical memory installed, available physical memory, and virtual memory statistics for the operating system.

Cmsconfig.exe

msconfig.exe (System Configuration) is used to manage startup programs, boot options, services, and system tools, but it does not provide detailed information about physical memory availability.

Dwmimgmt.msc

wmimgmt.msc opens the WMI Control console, which is used to configure and manage Windows Management Instrumentation services and security settings, not to directly view system memory information.
