Feeds / Search application using all of the ram

Anonymous

I noticed that the PC started running slow today and opened task manager to see that System, Feeds (Search application) is using CPU and Disk quite heavily and as much ram that it can to pin it to 100%.

Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?

Update: Windows crashed and i restarted, same application started to ramp up again so i ended it.

Looking into events now.

Possible Solution: Right Click Taskbar > News and Interests > Disable.
Then select end task on the Feed Search task. Usually takes about a minute but the RAM eating has stopped completely for me

Also happened to me, took up 99% of my 32GB Intel RAM with Xeon. How is this a real problem in a real stable build? I'm at a loss

Experienced the same issue today. Booted my system up and went to open a browser before it began to stutter. It was using spiking RAM usage to 97%. I was able to kill the task and disable the news feed from the taskbar.

AMD Ryzen 9 3900X
32GB RAM
Nvidia 3080Ti (ver 51.79 drivers)
OS 19043.1586

Version 21H1
