Anyone know of a cure for excessive memory usage by RuntimeBroker App on Win8-Win8Pro with WindowsMediaCenter8Pack installed.Removed Time Tile and any useless related time tile apps ,then memory subsided to a normal level.But,what if another app does the same thing?I'm reporting a 1.6GB memory overuse; before i ,almost ran my WinMediaCenter app which i know uses 600mb-1GB when it is running .this happened on a HP-Asus motherboard with a AMD Athlon64X2 3800+ 2ghz dualcore socket940 AM2 cpu with 2x1GB DDR2 pc2 5300 memory.My reboot did stop and shutdown the serious memoryleak. Since,this occurred; i removed time tiles and apps,but i am still concerned this was not whole memory leak problem .Shouldn't excessive memory use be required to use a memorydump file?;and if not then how can this issue be fixed??? thankyou,thydreamwalker :wacko:

the App "The Time" is the cause. The developer found a bug in the new WinRT API which caused this issue:

Updating to the last version of the App should fix the issue
