Windows 10 service host is consuming excessive RAM.
Hey there, I'm facing a problem with my new PC. Here are the specs: AMD Ryzen 9 3900x, RTX 2080, 32GB DDR4, Super Ripjaws V Black -3200. The issue is that service tasks are consuming memory constantly. It works fine when I boot up, but they keep growing and reaching 100MB or more, causing my PC to run out of memory and crash.
You're confused about the increasing RAM consumption and suspect a malicious program. It's understandable to worry, but reinstalling Windows might not always be necessary if you identify the real cause.
It seems you're referring to a discussion about service host applications consuming memory. The link points to a Microsoft forum thread that might help clarify the issue.
It seems the system might not support 32GB, but performance drops after some time. I’ve reset the PC already; it’s been around three days. Installed apps include Adobe Creative Cloud, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Lightroom, Steam, and a few games, plus Origin Discord, Chrome, Teamspeak, and Norton Internet Security.
