Firefox keeps running in the Windows Task Manager even after Exit and holds onto so much memory that it affects other applications
Firefox keeps running in the Windows Task Manager even after Exit and holds onto so much memory that it affects other applications. firefox.exe must be manually Ended in the Windows Task Manager. Is there a software patch that will force release of memory and all computer resources that Firefox was using, once it is Exited?
This happened
A few times a week
== I have only noticed the program in the Task Manager in the past few months however the problem could have been happening for longer
