Ouch, does it matter which compiler options?

Which memory type are you monitoring? There's several in Task Manager so maybe I'm looking at the wrong type?

I have reproduced it with the default options, didnt try anything else.
My guess is that the function simply does not free a handle.

I guess "working set" should show it.

Bug confirmed here with Win 11 Pro and PureBasic 6.30 Beta 3. The memory shown by Working Set rises slowly.

No such problem with PureBasic 6.10 with the same code on the same PC (the Working Set value stays the same).
