Lower idle memory footprint

Windows Latest and several Reddit users report that the update reduces RAM consumption while the system is idle. The change means machines left running without active workloads use less memory than before, though the exact scale of the reduction varies by user and was not quantified in the reports.

The reports are based on user observations rather than official documentation from Microsoft, and the company has not confirmed the change as an intended improvement. It also remains unclear whether the effect is consistent across all hardware configurations.

For users who keep their PCs running in the background, a smaller idle memory footprint can free up headroom for applications and may be noticeable on systems with limited RAM.

The claim that the update reduces idle RAM consumption, as reported by Windows Latest and Reddit users, is mostly true.
