It is a 64 bit operating system , windows 10 [1903] 64 bit
It has 2 memory slots & came with 1 x 4 gb Mylon tech. ram. I purchased the same to upgrade to 8 gb total but system info is only showing 4 gb? 
I ran CPU-Z and it is showing both slots 2x4 =8 gb !
I have been puling my hair out trying to figure this out!
Thank you in advance for any info!

What does the BIOS say? What about task manager?

 

Have you tried msconfig and see if maybe you have a maximum boot memory set?
