Memleak solution needed ASAP

[Zoltan Kokeny]

Since the upgrade to Windows 10, my memory usage is really high, first I noticed it during a download with utorrent, then I shut the program completely out, no auto-startup etc, my memory usage stabilized(I have a 4x4GB setup, out of the 16GB it was using 14 after a 4 hour session), now, when I started downloading with Steam, the same thing happened, now I have only 700MB of RAM remaining, the problem seems to be the Non-pageable RAM, I downloaded Windows Kits for developers, checked it in poolman, the cause is the netio.sys driver, some said the solution is to update a driver, but I haven't found any driver for my MSI 970 Gaming motherboard which runs with Qualcomm Atheros Killer Network driver, what could be a possible fix, I don't want to revert to 8.1 but if it's necessary, then it's possible.



Wfpn is the tag for netio.sys, checked it in cmd

Now I quit Steam, the memory leak stopped, but the nonpageable ram is not freed, so I'm stuck with 400 MB of RAM, restarting helps

From what I have read, updating the drivers for the Killer network device appears to resolve the issue. MSI might not have pushed an update yet, but Killer has published updated Windows 10 drivers for some of their network adapters. Might want to look into that. Also saw a reddit post where a user managed to resolve it with a quick regedit--although I would try the updated drivers first.
