Feeds / Search application using all of the ram

So far this helped me. I’ve got a Dell Inspiron 15 5000 (64-bit, 8GB RAM, running Windows 10 Home, Intel drivers? Sorry, I’m not the best at all the specs) that appeared to have updated Windows, and afterwards the Feeds process was taking up >85% of my RAM and slowing/crippling my computer. I disabled News & Interests, had to End Task on Feeds to do just about anything else, and was finally able to check for updates and it found the KB5010415 update. After restarting/updating, the Feeds process came back in task manager at startup, but a leaf popped up beside it saying the UWP process group was suspending the process to improve performance, and the Feeds process shortly thereafter disappeared. So far seems to be working better now.

Hi, im Kiet

Looks kinda similar to my old PC, but my ram never fill up to more than 50%

if your processor is a multi core processor, you can enable them all in msconfig advanced boot config menu

Hello,

How can I disable the Feeds process?
I've been tracking to track down my brand new computer would occasionally hang, there is basically nothing installed aside from videogames on it.

Usually it's not able to load the Task Manager, but today it was able to before dying.

I noticed the Feeds process using 10 GB of RAM and writing 100MB/sec on my SSD (****?).

I have no idea what is it doing, but I just want it to be shutdown, permanently. I don't care about any of the features provided by it on this machine, I have many other computers and this one should exist only for playing videogames.

I disabled "News and Interests", is there anything I have to do to ensure Feeds process also stays off/do no work?

Notice that it is somewhat connected to Chrome, because when I terminated it, Feeds usage started dropping.

hey. you made the same mistake of leaving paging files configured for your SSD another guy did. refer to my comment above to turn off the Feed and to prevent your SSD's horrible and untimely death.

gobbled up all 32 GB of RAM and took to eat the ssd disk, gobbled up 100 GB there too! My ssd drive is failing :(

This process is killing the ssd drive!

buddy, you should **not** have Virtual Memory / paging enabled for a SSD drive under any circumstances. You'll kill your SSD drive a lot faster even without Microsoft doing its usual thing of messing stuff up and having no idea how they did it.

For the Feed > Search application memory issue, if you haven't already, right click your taskbar, News and interests > Turn off, while they don't shoot a patch to fix this.

As for your Virtual Memory configurations, let's save your SSD, shall we?

Firstly, make sure you're not running anything important before doing this. You'll crash any programs and applications depending on Paging files when you click OK at the end of the process.

Go to Settings and type "performance". Click Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows.

In the next window, click Advanced, then Change...

Then, uncheck "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives", select your SSD drive, check No paging file, then click OK. Again, If you have any process depending on the paging file when you click OK, those processes will crash and you might lose something important. Make sure you're not running anything important before doing this. Preferably do it while ready to reboot your machine. If you have HDD drives connected, you can select them and check System managed size or a custom size for you to keep on having a Paging file enabled on something that won't be ruined by being used as makeshift RAM.

Next, click the rest of the OKs and reboot your machine. There, now you won't waste precious TBW on Virtual Memory and, thus, your SSD won't die too young.
