    Service Host Memory Leak Windows 10

    Hi,

    Recently my RAM has been getting used up by the 50 or so service host processes. I can see the processes slowly increase their memory usage over time. This is my task manger soon after startup, and then 40 minutes later, without running any applications.

    After a few hours of this my applications start crashing until I restart my PC and repeat. I believe this started after I uninstalled the Avast antivirus in favor of windows.

    researching this issue for a while now and i have been able to solve nothing.

    Service Host applications filling up my memory

    Service Host memory leak?

    Hi,
    I'm new to win 10 and it is a grand adventure I have to say.
    Today I figured why my computer has been shutting down/lagging.

    The processes under Service Host (all of them) consume ungodly amount of ram, and they increase usage over time. The PC can idle and this will still happen to the point of running out of memory and eventually shutting down.

    Any remedy for this?
