Hi guys,

I've been having this big memory leak , 24 Gb out of 32 GB, + the standard system usage of extra 2.5 GB, and my CPU was at 50-70% (4790K at 4.5Ghz, watercooled)

After reading a lot of your topics, I've found the problem and I also want to confirm this:

The Logitech Software was leaking all the memory, even if it wasnt shown in Task Manager, Resource Monitor or other 3rd party software.

I simply uninstalled each unwanted software and restarted the PC afterwards.

After 9 restards, I uninstalled Logitech Gaming Software and the 24 GB of ram was free.

How is this even possible?
And why?

Did anybody else had this problem, in the near past?

Thanks

I haven't had a memory leak problem but I had another big problem with Logitech Gaming Software. It's junk.

I have one of their MOMO racing wheels. It's pretty sweet but a few years old. One day I updated LGS and it stopping working right. The wheel would drift off center until it was all the way over. So I reinstalled the old LGS and it's still broken. I took the wheel apart and it's not a hardware problem. It's a common complaint all over the internet. Logitech tech support said: Install the new driver and it will just work you idiot. When I re-stated what I did and the fact that hundreds of other people have the same problem they said buy a new wheel and stopped responding to me.
