It is not a solution as of 8/29/25
High memory in Windows Desktop Manager exists in almost every computer we service. I've yet to find a fix that works. The registry entries, the command line stuff, the Group Policy stuff doesn't work and/or simply does not exist in 24H2.
Killing the process is no fix. Also, sometimes you kill the process and it does not restart like stated here.
