Windows 10: Desktop Window Manager's memory increases without limit

As long as I run my computer, Desktop Window Manager increases how much memory it uses. I hit a new record of 1.1 GB earlier. It started after I ran a 3D game on my laptop for a week, and a hardware failure in something called LiveKernelEvent happened a few times.

Increase Memory Usasge After update

Prior to the windows KB4524244 update my memory usage was right around 7% - Running at 32gb memory I am now using idle 12% memory without Firefox, Chrome, or internet explorer running. I find it a bit annoying that my machine with 32GB Ram/memory is operating
at idle as if it had 24GB or 16GB memory after the update.

Hoping Microsoft could help with some advice.

Here are a few things I tried without any luck of performance.
