Ah - DiapDealer already replied ...

As there are Windows 10 installs that do not experience this issue (case in point DiapDealer's, BetterRed's etc), and no one on Linux or Mac that experiences this issue,
then there must either be a conflict with qtwebkit 5.212/Qt 5.11.2 and either your graphics driver or something else on your system. Or alternatively, a c++ runtime library mismatch of some kind for memory to leak so horribly?

No one is doubting it is happening for some Windows users.

The question is how to track down what is causing the Qt code to react that way on your system when it works as designed on other systems.

BetterRed talked about booting into safe mode to see if that helps. He uses a programto track down conflicts with kernel / system extensions. Have you tried that?

Have you tried installing it someplace outside of the Program Files official location?

Have you tried running it as administrator to see if the issue is priviledge related?

Have you tried updating your graphics driver?

Have you tried installing an updated c++ runtime library?

If any one of those help, that would help us narrow down what might be the issue Qt is having with your system.
