Re: Winlogon Memory Leak
Sorry for resurrecting such an old post but this is very close to what I
am experiencing as well (my problem is with CPU usage, instead of
memory). My production servers are remote and accessed via RDP. We
frequently seeing the winlogon.exe process taking up huge amount of CPU
usage (up to a core of a multi-core box) and the only solution to free
the core back up for normal use is to reboot the server. The winlogon
process is always tied to a disconnected RDP session that fails to
reset. As an added bonus, the console RDP port AND the physical port
fail to respond (we sit at a grey screen after we logon, almost like
the explorer does not start) whenever this happens.
Seeing that it has been just over two years since this was last
commented on, has anyone found a solution to the memory problems you
were having?? I've got a feeling that whatever may fix this leak, may
also fix the problem I am having...
Thanks,
Andy
