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.

    It is definitely a memory leak.

    I wonder if the latest win updates from this Tuesday had anything to do with it on my end, it seems to have started a day after that. I know the problem happened long before that for some of you so might be something else with the news and interest feeds affecting people at random times.

    So far its running ok again and I got my disc space on drive C: back also after killing news and interest. I never really used this feature anyways so will leave it off for now.

    Killing the feeds process in taskmanager gave me back my memory, is there any way to make so this process wont run again in task manager next time I restart my computer? Or is it enough that I turned it off from running on the taskbar, will this keep it from running in taskmanager or will it return next time I restart computer?

    Just had this happen to me tonight all the sudden on 2 desktop computers, one AMD machine and the other intel machine. I turned off the news and interest feed on the taskbar and will try kill the Feeds process in the taskmanager and then do a full restart and see if it help. Was crazy to see how all my memory was used up and on my amd machine all the disc space on the c drive was down to under 500mb never seen something like that, normally windows wont even run when it's so low. I had to remove some large file just to free up some space. Has any of you noticed a problem with this also disc space being used up on drive c: ? The latest windows updates I got was something from net framework and some other things. There is still something I can install in windows update called Windows 10 Version 21H2 for x64-based systems (KB5011831) - Would you recommend I install this one ?
