Unusual High Memory Usage by "dwm.exe"

[FluppyFR]

I am facing a peculiar issue while using Wallpaper Engine, and I need some guidance to resolve it. The problem revolves around the "Desktop Window Manager" (dwm.exe) process, which is consuming an abnormally high amount of memory, peaking at 7GB. This behavior is clearly not normal and is causing performance problems on my system. By terminating the Wallpaper Engine process, the memory consumption by "dwm.exe" returns to normal levels. There maybe a correlation between Wallpaper Engine and the abnormal behavior of "dwm.exe."

System Specifications:

Operating System: Win10 22H2
RAM:16G
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (Laptop)
CPU: Intel i7-11800H

What I've Tried:

I've attempted to resolve the issue by restarting Wallpaper Engine and rebooting my laptop, but to no avail.
I've ensured that my laptop's GPU & CPU drivers are up-to-date.
I've also confirmed that my operating system is running the latest updates available.

Hey, I have not come across this before, the next time you see this high DWM usage, could you run our analysis tool and share the log file it creates as explained here:

Make sure to only run it while the issue is actively happening so that it records all relevant data.
