The Windows memory leak problem has been longstanding. We used to have to restart FrameMaker at least once a day (and reboot once a day, too) while the SUN workstations would run without rebooting for months. I don’t think it trusting Windows beyond a day is sensible. Shut down at night and start fresh in the morning; it’s Windows!

I have to kill the process with the Task Manager, get rid of *.lck files, get rid of the *auto files (or rename them, saving the originals just in case into another directory), restart the whole thing, check manually that the chapters are in the right state - all tedious for a 40-chapter book. It's really bizarre that after all these years, in a product with the Adobe label, there are still such crashes. Does anyone know any way to present them from happening? I guess exiting after a few days of use and restarting is prudent (if unpleasant in 2022), is there a better way?
