The infamous dwm.exe hogging lots of memory. FYI this is not a specific program issue. It just happens with any programs, activities randomly.

I'm getting really tired of killing dwm.exe every so often so that it will release the occupied memory. When is this going to be fixed? Is this ever going to be fixed even?

    If the link was in English, clicking on it will change the language to the user's system language.

    If the link was in another language, clicking on it will leave the language unchanged.

    I know, but for some reason the link to create a bootable usb is in Russian, the link will still open in Russian, even if the user is from another country.

    That's why I didn't send the link.
