Minecraft, I notice, was using up 40 or more percent of memory, and as I had nothing much to lose, I deleted the whole game, including the %appdata% folder, and redownloaded but to no avail, it still shows I have used 40% even on a fresh new world. How can I fix this to go back to when I first got it, so it's around 7% to 13%, I run Windows 7, if that matters.
If this needs to be moved to a more appropriate spot, please do so. Thank you, in advance.
You can use an external launcher like Magic Launcher to allocate more or less memory to Minecraft. Or I believe you can do the same thing by launching it from the command line. Now I'm not actually sure, so you should double-check that you know what you're doing before you go typing this in to your computer, but I think something like:

I don't think you understand, I deleted minecraft, and when I installed and played, and pressed f3, it says I have 40% of memory down, even on a new fresh copy.

Deleting files won't free up your computer's memory, it will only free up disk space. That 40% is of your computer's memory, not disk space.

Ideas I would like to see in vanilla Minecraft: 1) A grinding machine — similar to a furnace, but breaks down items like a leather tunic into pieces of leather. 2) Recycling — the ability to smelt metal tools and pieces of armor back into their respective ingots. 3) A hammer — used to break down cobblestone into gravel, and gravel into sand. 4) A study — a work bench that takes an enchanted item and a plain book to extract enchantments at the cost of experience.

You think magic isn't real? Consider this: for every person, there is a sentence -- a series of words -- which has the power to destroy them.
