hsiegelman 0 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 About a week ago, after I deleted the Download Windows 10 files I noticed a small but persistent ram usage of about 3% and CPU usage on on or more core of between 3% and 31%. It only happened when I had Microsoft Outlook 2010 open. My system is running Windows 7, and Smart Security 9. I have searched the web and found others who have had the same problem that involves persistent telemetry logging to very small files with .etl extension located in AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\ folder. I have verified that my Outlook options were not set to enable global logging, changed a registry setting for Client telemetry, and finally tried to open Outlook in safe mode. When open in safe mode ("Outlook /safe") the add-ins were disabled and the memory and ram drain stopped. Next, I opened Outlook in regular mode and disabled all of the add-ins and no memory and ram drain. When I enabled each add-in separately and in groups the ram and memory drain only recurred when I enabled the ESET add-in. This problem is not limited to Outlook but occurs when any Office suite programs are opened. Is there a work-around or a patch to address this problem? If requested, I will attach the output from my run of the SysInspector program. I have read on one of the Microsoft forums that the problem was not present in Outlook 2016. Thanks for any feedback.

hsiegelman 0 Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 I did that on 10/27/15 and customer care contacted me the same day. I sent the logs that they requested and responded to their question regarding if- and under what condition the the issue recurred. I responded and have not heard anything for the past 11 days. My case number is 1367452. I have sent them two "hello, anyone there?" emails during that time. I have been an ESET customer for more than 20 years and expected better customer care.
