Windows 10: Windows 11 Memory Leak

Hi Techies,I have been using Windows 11 now since it's launch and i'm really enjoying it. However over the past 2 days i have noticed something funky Technical Term going on with it's Memory usage. I leave my PC on for long periods of time since i run a plex server out of it. I was having a conversation with my work buddies about PC performance, and when I checked task manager my Memory was sitting at 33.7GB in use. I have 64GB total. Upon checking Task manager and resource manager, nothing obvious is using that much memory. I have rebooted and it seems to drop back to the usual 9 to 10GB i

Possible Memory Leaks in Windows 10

A memory leak occurs when an application closes and fails to release all its RAM back to the operating system.

The first step in dealing with a memory leak is to determine which application is leaking memory.

The next step is to contact that application's technical support with complete details of the memory leak, since the developers will want to fix the problem ASAP.

 

Memory leak issue

The term "memory leak" means that an application fails to return all its RAM to the operating system when it exits. The leftover RAM is unusable to the operating system.

Step one is to identify the application that is leaking memory. Step two is to contact the application's developers and provide as much detailed data on the memory leak as you can. For example: which processes are still in RAM after the application exits
and how much RAM they occupy. Application developers never want their applications to leak memory and they will be grateful for the details you provide, particularly if they can replicate the leak on their own computers.
