The once fearsome process killer is now a leaker of resources
You were meant to destroy the unresponsive tasks, not join them!
Oh no!
The issue, which turned up in the non-security preview update for Windows 11 (KB5067036)
Oh so it’s nothing. Don’t join the Windows Insider program unless you are ok with getting bugs, and when you do get bugs - report them. That’s what it’s for! It’s NOT for regular everyday Joe Blow to run on their personal machine.
Preview updates, including this one, are offered to everyone, not just people in the Windows insider program. They show up in Windows Update with a ‘Download & install’ button. They will automatically install if “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available” is enabled.
And you don’t have preview updates enabled unless you know what you’re signing up for, or you’re too dumb to understand what you’re signing up for.
