Conclusion
Memory leak is a problem that can degrade system performance and stability. A memory leak occurs when a program or process allocates memory from the operating system but does not restore it when it is no longer needed. Memory leaks can be detected using resource monitors, memory analysis tools, or memory testing tools.
Memory leaks can be resolved by terminating problematic programs or processes, updating the operating system, drivers, or applications, changing operating system settings, drivers, or applications, adding physical or virtual memory, or using memory optimization tools. By overcoming memory leaks, we can improve system performance and stability.
