Memory leak? or Reclaim ram? after backup

Thread needs solution

Dell XPS 8930 i7-9700 64 gig ram latest win10/64.

I have an automatic backup scheduled every night. I have started noticing that True image uses 10-15 mb of ram while backing up, but the ram is not released for system use after it is finished and if I don't restart eventually the system will run out of ram.

For instance, I have 43730MB/65372MB of ram free (25% used) now after the backup (all programs closed) and I cannot free up the 25%.

This new, I used to be able to keep my PC running for a week or more without issue.

Christopher, welcome to these public User Forums.

Yours is the first report of any issues related to memory usage that I can remember seeing in any of the Acronis forums, so there doesn't seem to be a general memory leak type issue at work?

I have several PC's all running ATI 2021 latest build which go long periods without being restarted and with no obvious memory constraints noticed.

Can you confirm that you are using ATI 2021 latest build #35860 (released December 22nd) and what version of this you have, i.e. Standard / Essential / Advanced or Premium (as shown on the Account page in the GUI)?

Are you using the new Protection features of ATI 2021 or using a separate third-party security application / suite?
