When it's released and installed the 1425 I'll report here the news, if the issue is solved or not. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @Marcos posted if you want to receive ver. 1425 ASAP, you have to modify Eset GUI Update settings to use the pre-release update channel as noted in the below screen shot. Once this is changed, Eset will download all available pre-release modules in what will appear to be an Eset new release update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a health problem that is consuming my time and forces. Thanks for the information on the update for the last version of module 1425. I have still the 1423 version. If in a week new version isn't released through normal updates, I'll update like that. By now, I rebooted again the computer and the usage of RAM dropped again... increasing slowly one more time. Rebooting is a way for dropping the usage of RAM, but I'd like to know why it happens and why only rebooting the usage drops. (Switching off and then switching on again doesn't works, after switching on the usage is the same as previously.) I'll report news. Thanks.

From your description it seems that you have Fast startup enabled. You can try disabling it and see if switching system off instead of rebooting decreases RAM usage.

Tomorrow I'll make a on-demand scan and we'll see if again the usage if RAM increases very much and don't drop after the end of the scan. Thank you for the help.

Is it normal? Thanks. Yes. Once you returned to the regular update channel, Eset download modules used on that channel. As far as Internet Module is concerned, that is ver. 1423. The only way you will receive ver. 1425 that contains the memory usage fix is to remain on the pre-release update channel. Once Eset releases ver. 1425 on the regular update channel, you can then switch back to that channel. Again, it may be some time till ver. 1425 is released on the regular update channel.

Pre-release update setting is an exception in cases like yours where Eset moderators instructed you specifically to switch to pre-release updating.

Is it normal? Thanks. Eset do recommended people use pre release updates on non production computers. The reason is often they will release new versions for people to test, often fixing issues, and by multiple people using it they can test if it works and also if there are any compatibility issues E.g. they could release a pre release update to the main stable channel that could actually have issues but they weren't detected because not many people had used that version. Eset does have quality control, checks etc. But issues can happen, things missed etc. Peter Randziak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did an on-demand scan. The use of the RAM raised up to 300 Mb, but soon after the ESET product told me that there was a new version available (14.1.20.0, a few days ago I installed the 14.1.19, how fast a new version has ben released), and after installing and rebooting to complete the installation the process started again. I have explained before that after rebooting the use of RAM is minimal (30 M or so). Now it's at 185 Mb and rising. I'll check for a few days if it keeps raising and how much. On the other hand: if I return to normal update also I'll lose the new version 14.1.20.0 of the product? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eset recommends you use the pre release updates for general use e.g. if it's not an important work computer. There's always a risk when using something not final but without users trying it they can't get feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
