memory leak

Hi all, been a long time since I posted here but can't seem to solve this one. 16GB DDR5 RAM @ 6000mhz sitting at 95%+ usage at idle in Windows 10. Task manager shows the process utilising the most ram is antimalware service executable at ~150-200mb, all other services <80mb. However...

I'm struggling to find out what is eating up my memory on my Windows 10 PC. The longer I leave my PC on, the more RAM gets taken, but task manager will not show what is taking up all the memory. I have done some tests with RamMap, all I found is page table will increase slowly. Ran a sfc...

Good afternoon, I noticed that for 2 hours of work in the cache 8 gb, although I did not use only the browser(Chrome) and Telegram, no other applications that could take up this space. I learned about RamMap application in the discussion of another issue and decided to install it to see what is...

Hello, I have recently been having issues with game crashes along with other apps at the same time. This has never happened before. I think the trigger may have been me trying to change some graphic settings in order to play Rust or installing Opera gx about a month ago. I have since reverted...

Greetings! I've been trying to identify what exactly is the root cause of my high non-paged memory usage. Using Kernel Pool Monitor, it seems the culprit is something called "meml". Problem is, I can't find anything online as to what program/driver that would be. I was hoping maybe someone on...

So ever since a couple of weeks ago I suddenly started getting freezes in games when trying to load into for example a map or a cutscene. It could be re created at the same point, so it’s not always intermittent, but it can be. When it freezes, my SSD usage goes to 100% but appears to be doing...

So a week ago one of my Ram slots simply stopped working, which is odd, the Mobo isnt that old nor the PSU, since then what i realized is that my computer is, for some odd reason using all my virtual memory aka pagination files in windows and once it reaches full capacity everything starts...

Recently I've switched back to using automatic page filing on my 1TB HDD with 8GB of RAM. I didn't want to worry about setting the right page file. However, I've noticed in task manager that my browser is all over the place rather than being compiled in one list (the 15 one) Is this normal or...

Hello, So to start off my situation, I usually leave my computer on 24/7 and only restart for updated and such. A few weeks ago, there was a day where I unlocked my computer and oddly enough, my mouse was lagging across my screen, and the audio was popping when I would watch a video/listen to...

So I have this issue where the longer I use my computer without restarting, the more ram that gets used up as can be seen in the picture below (There were no open applications or anything when I took the picture). I have no idea how to find where the memory leak is coming from and I definitely...

I have pretty serious issues with memory leaks. After about 2-3 days my computer runs at a constant 13 gb (out of 32) of memory in use- even with all applications closed. I ran a RAMMap and found that processes only consume 4gb of ram (at idle, only background apps open) while "mapped file"...

Can anyone help me with this, my windows is eating memory on idle. I found some suspicious soundmodule.exe located in appdata/microsoft that is eating 2.5gb ram? Can this be some maleware? And is this process tree looking suspicious?

Hello, I built a new computer about a month ago and recently it has been having a huge memory leak. I've attached a few pictures that show what I am talking about. I decided to do a bit of research on what I can do in order to find out what is causing the memory leak. I read online to download...

I have Windows 10.0.17134 with 8GB ram. I don't normally get any lags due to insufficient memory. But today I tried to run a python script which requires a lot of computation as it deals with HUGE numbers, the memory usage starts to peak up and went to the state of freezing the OS. Then I had to...

Hey so just a disclaimer: I can build computers but i'm not too quick with the software, especially the inner workings of it, so if there are ANY tips, no matter how obvious they may seem, just plug them in for good measure so I can cover all the ground I can So I upgraded to my now GTX 1080...

I updated the Windows 10 May update this month and have had a huge memory leak since, to the point where I can't play any games (it just freezes). I've run poolmon and found the files that are causing the memory leak are all Windows 10 related such as: fileinfo.sys., fltmgr.sys, crashdmp.sys...
