Have you considered installing Linux and seeing if WINE/Proton can run that software? Might free up a bit of RAM headroom, and if it doesn't work out, you haven't lost anything more than a bit of time as you'll just be grabbing a beefier laptop anyways.
The software is Case Catalyst by Stenograph, Inc. I can try. I don't have much experience with WINE working well enough in the past with other niche apps. Thank You.
I have not had luck getting Case Catalyst to run well in WINE and it is not in the WINE AppDB. WINE is great software, but just stick with Windows, so you don't have two problems.
Also, uninstall any extra software (so called "crapware") that came installed on your laptop. These are notorious for hogging resources. Often this comes in the form of antivirus software and "lite" software suites that nag you for subscriptions constantly.
Uninstall anything Symantec, Norton or Adobe (unless you absolutely need it).
I personally use Chris Titus's WinUtil to debloat: https://christitus.com/windows-tool/
Thank you for the link to this tool. That should help! :-)
WINE has come along way (in fact, legacy Windows apps tend to work better on Linux that Windows 11 these days), especially when you add in Proton, Winetricks, etc. It's worth a shot
