The new update to the taskbar feature seems to be the cause and crashes the system eventually.
Are you using Windows 11 (the original post is about Win 10)?

Feeds / Search application using all of the ram

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.

2022-02-18T19:33:21+00:00 Can you try disabling the "News and Interest" feature on your taskbar (Miroslav Prágl's tips in page 3), kill the "Feeds" process that might still running, and restart your system?
There are few people already tried this, and it seems works as a temporary measure.
Oh, and seems like there might be some concerning related issues with Nvidia's driver, did you update your Nvidia driver to the latest?
