Please be informed that Runtime Broker is a Windows process in Task Manager that helps manage permissions on your PC for apps from Windows Store. It ideally uses a few megabytes of memory, but in some cases, a faulty app might cause Runtime Broker to
use up more.

Try the followings steps:

  Click "Search" and type "Troubleshooting" without quotes and hit enter.
  
•

Please post back with the updated status to assist you further.

runtime broker problem

Runtime broker increasing mem usage incrementaly past 6 gig (12g mem in sustem) and 100% usage of disc. downgrade runtime priotity to lowest priority helps but resets to normal. Ending task stops usage but comes right back. Don't want to disable it
if it is a needed program as suggested in other post I have read. Running win 10.
