    Service Host Using LOTS of Memory. Services: WMI and IP Helper

    Just an update...

    I managed to solve my issue by disabling the service "Ip Helper" which belongs to service host and restarting the computer.

    The leak stopped and I haven't found any more problems since then.

    However, this isn't the right fix. The right thing to do was to know why the two services inside service host(IP Helper and WMI) are conflicting with each other causing a leak.

    Maybe your leak isn't coming from the same services as mine so I suggest stopping each one individually until you find the ones that are causing the leak.

    Once you've done that try keeping them disabled and restart your computer.

    I managed to keep IP Helper disabled without causing any malfunctions to my system.

    Good luck.

    ip helper and WMI service. Huge memory leaks. IP Helper not fixed?

    w10 1909

    Does anyone know why IP Helper service causes such a huge memory leak?

    on google, this seems to be an ongoing problem since windows 7.


    it eats 2gb of ram, and somehow causes WMI to eat another 2gb of ram.I stopped the IP Helper service to recover the ram, and it doesn't look like anything is broken.It says it's for ipv6 stuff, but I'm not using ipv6 for anything.

    Yet, the ram keeps leaking.

    What's going on?

    I have VMware workstation installed, but I'm not running any VMs

    I also have hotspot turned on, with 2 phones connected, but they're idle.

    so why does ip helper grow to 2gb ram usage?
