Internet Explorer Taking Up Lot Of Memory - Also Disable Screensaver

Sep 20, 2012

I usually have about half dozen IE windows opened at anytime. I might start a few more and then close a couples. But eventually I notice one or two if the IE processes start to use up several hundred MB ram up to eventually 1GB ram. When one of the IE processes hit the 1 GB ram mark, it's inevitable that one of the IE windows then stop functioning, as clicking the link you don't get any page loading. If I then shut down that process, then everything works again.

Once in a while, I notice that one of the IE process would reach high ram usage of hundred MB ram and the screen saver would stop coming on as well as the power setting for turning off screen would be disabled. This is even if there's no IE process running a video at that time. It's possible that I might have open IE to say view a video before but I know I close that IE process and yet this still happens. If I go and shut down all the IE processes that seem to take a lot of mem, then screen saver comes on again. I imagine that this also affects other browsers as well?

Why Is IE Taking Up So Much Memory

Nov 22, 2012

I took a look at my TaskMan because my Core 0 was at 100%, and I just exited a flash game.I had 4 IE windows open, and a total of 4 tabs. One iexplore.exe was using over 400,000K. I clicked on the Applications tab, right clicked on each App, and selected Go To Process. None took me to the iexplore.exe. NOW, I have 2 more tabs open [both 7forums] and the memory usage is over 873,000K..I am currently on my second attempt on uploading a Zip of the .DMP of that IE process, and it doesn't look good. Nope.I will try uploading it later, but until then, can somebody walk me through.

Windows Explorer Taking Up 99% Processing Speed?

May 24, 2011

I've been having the same problem that a few others have been having where when I open a certain folder, windows explorer begins to creep up in CPU count, and my computer starts to chug, but the solutions haven't worked for me. Mainly because the problem files are .wavs, instead of an .avi. Nonetheless, I tried. I went registry diving, changed settings, disabled services, to no avail.

Windows 7 Explorer.exe Running At Total Memory After A Few Minutes "memory Leak"

Oct 28, 2012

To start, I have Windows 7, on Sony Vaio laptop. I have been working on the issues with the malware removal team, but now machine looks clean, I am still having issues. When starting the computer and going to the task manager, I can watch explorer.exe start at about 18K memory usage and then grow constantly until it is running with almost all of the computer's physical memory after about seven min. I cannot get the context menu to show up after a few min by right clicking on anything. I had been experiencing "freezing" while playing Eden Eternal (an online role playing game) before that, which made me consider malware and seek help here at BleepingComputer. The freezing has ended, last time I played on that machine at least, but now there seems to be some issue with the explorer.exe taking all of the memory. I haven't been using the machine since I don't trust that there's not something running in the background that shouldn't be. In resource monitor there were "connections" that had "-" for both the name and the PID, but I don't know if that was the malware of if that's normal somehow? Issue with explorer.exe seems to be limited to only one user account, and not the other one. That is to say that if I log on one of the other accounts explorer.exe behaves normally, as far as memory usage.

How To Disable CTRL+Z In Windows 7 Explorer

Sep 16, 2012

Sometimes you want to do CTRL+Z in an application but since it's not focused you happen to do it in windows explorer by error, undoing stuff you've done like renaming/moving directories. So I would like to disable the CTRL+Z hotkey in windows explorer (not in other applications though); I don't use it anyway.

Disable Click Renaming Of Items In Explorer?

Oct 13, 2010

Does Windows 7 finally allow me to disable this "feature"? It's one of the few things which I have an irrational hate for. If I want to rename the file I will use the rightclick context menu. PLEASE. I only use the left mouse button for two things:selecting something and doubleclicking to open something.

Disable Auto-Focus In Windows Explorer

Jun 10, 2012

Not sure if "focus" is the right term here, but anyway. I use "list" view almost exclusively so this may not be an issue with other views. But one of my beefs with Windows 7 is: if you're viewing a folder that has multiple rows of files or sub folders; then you click on of the the folders that's more to the right of the window and the entire contents of the window reorients itself so what you clicked on is now more towards the left area of the window. Know what I'm saying?

Here's a before and after of what I'm talking about.. Open Window...

Now I click on a file that's slightly out of view and it does this without me touching the slider at all.....

Windows 7 Explorer - Remove/Disable Details Columns?

Nov 12, 2011

In Windows Explorer, Detail View, is there a way to remove/disable the additional columns? (ie: Track, Artist, length, etc) I'm a simple person, and only want the main columns displayed, (Size, Type, Date) and Windows 7 seems to ignore me when i change the views. Even the "Reset All", and "Apply to All" seem to be ignored after a day later.In XP your could remove them from RegEdit under HKCRSystemFileAssociations and deleting the "Audio", "Video", and "Images" keys, and Explorer would 'forget' how to handle them, and details view would remain the same, but Windows 7 doesn't seem to respond to this either.

How To Disable Internet Access From The OS Itself

Feb 11, 2012

My question is simple, I want to disable internet access in a Windows 7 Home Premium x64bit administrator account (having admin rights of course), but directly from the OS itselft and without having to resort to third party programs or even Win 7 default Firewall.

At first I thought this would be easy but Im still completely lost, I have tried searching for possible solutions like blocking port 80 from the hosts file, or disabling tcpip from the registry but no luck.

Explorer.exe Eats Up Memory

Sep 28, 2009

I've been experiencing that explore.exe is eating up my memory, in fact all available memory and thus causing a severe system slowdown.

I've tried to isolate the problem and I found an explanation related with autorun: whenever I have a popup asking me what to do with the files from hard drives with mixed contents, the system begins to scan inside the file structure and start eating up the RAM. Even if you tell the dialog box to do nothing, it will go on with the process, as if it still searches for items, but it doesn't end.

If I kill the explorer.exe process in the task manager and run it again, the problem dissapears.

But I've found that as soon as I change the Autorun options in the control panel and uncheck the main checkbox so it doesn't use autorun for any kind of media, it runs as expected.

I'm using Windows Ultimate x64 RTM (build 7600) downloaded from my TechNet Plus subscription.

I also have Mac HFS+ formatted volumes in my system that are read using Mediafour MacDrive. I'll try to uninstall it and check if the problem continues.

Enable And Disable Internet Connection?

Feb 5, 2012

For security reasons, I want to turn my Internet connection via my Netgear router on and off, as I like.In Windows XP it was eay. I could pull out a LAN icon from the Network connection section in the Control Panel to the desktop.Then all I needed was to click it and choose to disable/enable the Internet connection.I could also disable it from the tray icon and enable it from the LAN icon.In Windows 7 I don't find such a possibility. It is in the Internet all the time, or if I disable it, it is complicated to enable it again...
