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.

    This happened to me today. I do not have nvidia or third party antivirus.

    Firefox crashed and cpu & ram went to 100%; Task Mgr pointed to Feeds. After stopping Feeds PC went back to normal (so far).

    This happened to me and I had noticed there’s been issues for a week or two now.

    AMD Ryzen 9 5950X

    64GB RAM

    NVIDIA GeForce 1650

    Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero

    I was browsing Chrome, background apps were Steam, Discord, Wallpaper Engine, Display Fusion, NZXT Cam, Logi G Hub, Razer Central

    I don’t know if any other info helps but following the steps of disabling news and closing feeds from task manager it seems to have helped the issue as it went immediately down from 99%
