dwm DWM.EXE TAKES UP A LOT OF VRAM

[volto]

Is it normal that dwm.exe (desktop windows manager) is eating almost 2gb of vram?
I need to say that i have 2 monitor:
1x 4k

1x 1080p

DWM.exe also known as desktop window manager, processes effects and graphics. If you have something to make your taskbar all fancy or if you have wallpaper engine or lively wallpapers this will make DWM.exe use up a far amount of vram.

I actually don't have any of that stuff enabled, just a custom wallpaper and default performance settings for windows

Hmmm, that is strange. Are you using a windows wallpaper or one you downloaded?

Try restarting you computer sometimes that will resolve the issue.

I'm using one that my dad took on his phone, so it's not so high resolution.
everytime i power on my computer i always get 1,5gb of vram used in idle.
So strange...

Ah ok. The last 2 things I can think of are, make sure your computer doesn't have a virus. And make sure your drivers are up to date.
