Windows 11 memory leak bug issue gives a nightmare to users, Know details about it

With the launch of Windows 11 operating system just few days ago, Microsoft has been in headlines. Though thousands of users across the globe are upgrading to Windows 11, but the transition is not as expected. Many users who have installed the Windows 11 are facing bugs in their systems.

The issue of a major bug on the Windows 11 has been reported by a Reddit user. Soon after reports about the bugs was shared on Reddit community, other members also complained about the same issue. Apparently the bug is in the form of a memory leak and it appears on the Windows Explorer.

In simple terms, a memory leak occurs when a computer program incorrectly manages memory allocations. The memory which is no longer needed by the computer is not released and it results in more memory consumption than requirement. A memory leak can force your computer to run slower than normal.

In order to solve the issue, users have to restart the File Explorer from the task manager. Sometimes if the situation is worse, they have to restart the computer. If the memory leak issue is left unchecked the amount of RAM consumption keeps increasing and might freeze your system.
