How to Fix Memory Leak on Windows 11 (SOLVED)
When you upgrade to Windows 11 (version 21H2), you may encounter a memory leak issue known in the community that may negatively impact your experience. On October 5, Microsoft officially began gradually rolling out the new operating system to computers that meet the new system requirements. However, it appears that the final version has a memory leak that is causing devices to run out of RAM in some cases.
According to a new report from PCGamer (via Windows Central), Windows 11 has a memory leak bug, and the application responsible is File Explorer.
In short, a “memory leak” describes the event when a system or application process refuses to release the portion of memory it is using, causing problems such as slowdowns or system crashes.
