"heapleakdetection" entry in registry for bitcoin-qt.exe

[fanquake]

Moved from bitcoin/bitcoin#30629.

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current behaviour

there is an entry indicating there is a heap leak in bitcoin-qt.exe:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\RADAR\HeapLeakDetection\DiagnosedApplications\bitcoin-qt.exe]
"LastDetectionTime"=hex(b):ce,61,4c,3c,47,bc,da,01

unfortunately no details, also it could be qt related? i hope so :D

Expected behaviour

expected to free memory as soon as it can be freed

Steps to reproduce

unfortunately can't reproduce, though people can check if they have a same entry in their registry

What version of Bitcoin Core are you using?

Actually the hex LastDetectionTime translates to:

LDAP: 133626153101189582
Epoch/Unix time: 1718141710
GMT: 2024. June 11., Tuesday 21:35:10

so it cannot be v27.1 as it wasn't released yet, i used v27.0 at that time.
