My modded minecraft was stuttering and eventually crashed, figured it it was either not enough RAM or an issue with the pack. Turns out it was HUNDREDS of duplicates of OmenInstallMonitor.exe eating up 99% of my 32gb of RAM. Thankfully other people had already figured out the fix so that wasn’t too hard but it’s just kinda crazy that such a thing can happen.

Just about the only good thing about is being able to find solutions like this.

It’d be great if we didn’t have to resort to finding random R*ddit posts, but that’s too much to ask for.

I keep rolling into leddit solution threads to find the OP or the relevant reply either deleted or wiped. Reddit ruining its one use.
