Unusual memory issues in Windows 11
Unusual memory issues in Windows 11
If the memory leak originates from the actual browser process, updating drivers won't resolve it. Drivers operate in kernel memory space, while user applications run separately. Updating drivers might help slightly, but don't expect major fixes. AV software also runs in kernel space and handles malware detection. It's possible a third-party AV, especially one with a flawed scan engine or updates, could be causing the issue. Therefore, checking for any additional AV installed on both systems is advisable for deeper analysis. If you think this might be the case, remove the software and rely on Windows Defender to confirm the cause.
