Windows 11 23H2 Memory Leak from lsass.exe

[AustinBrown]

I have a serious memory leak issue that has been going on in my system since March of this year.

Since I upgraded to Windows 11, the lsass.exe program has been leaking memory slowly over the course of a six-hour period before the virtual memory reaches 99%, causing my PC to crash and forcing me to restart the system to bring it back down.

From my research and patience, I have found no such solution to this issue except for 22h2 systems, which this is not.

Here is all my information on my current system. If you need anymore information on this computer or my situation, please ask away and I will do my best to assist you.

also other reports of corrupt drivers and recommendation was install drivers direct from manufactures web site.

Update your drivers, especially for critical components like the GPU, network adapter, and chipset. You can check the manufacturer's website or use Windows Device Manager to update them.

Ensure that your operating system is up to date. Microsoft frequently releases updates that may patch bugs or issues along with performance improvements.

4. Review system logs: Look for lsass.exe related error logs in Event Viewer to diagnose the problem.
5. Observe resource usage: Monitor lsass.exe 's memory consumption via Task Manager to identify abnormal behavior.
6. Tweak service settings: disable additional services that might affect lsass.exe to test if memory leaks are improved.
7. Review security policies: Check and adjust group policies or local security settings that may affect how lsass.exe runs.
8. DLL re-registration: Try to re-register the system DLL files to fix possible problems
