You don't have to do anything, just wait and let it run the test. This may take a few minutes, and during this process, you will see a progress bar, so you can follow the progress of the check. As a result, you will receive a "Status" message, which will say whether any problems were found or not.

As a result, your computer will automatically reboot, and after logging in, the test results will appear.

If it does not, the test results can be viewed as follows:

Right-click the start button and select Event Viewer, then go to Windows Logs. In the System section, you will see a list of many events; click "Find" in the right pane and enter "Memory Diagnostic" in the search field. Then click "Find Next", and you will see the result displayed at the bottom of the window.

Thus, you will be aware of the state of your RAM.
