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?

2021-09-09T17:31:18+00:00 Still no fix, Windows updates are so bad and with so many ridicule bugs they are becoming a meme. Intel to. The devs have no idea of what they are writing. I Will not be surprised when Word and Excel start bricking PCs and I am preety sure even the present mac version of Office is more reliable.

2021-09-14T09:13:30+00:00 I have installed yesterday newest version of driver from the HP support website for my hp elitebook 840 g5 .. I had it hibernated overnight ..
for now, results looks good, but lets see in next days
Edit: After few hibernations, dwm is behaving, no leaking it seems.
