Hi all. 

Using Erlang 25.3.2 with RMQ 3.11.10 I'm seeing the performance of my (Windows) server being destroyed by Erlang continually spawning PowerShell commands. They respawn often, and continuously use all available CPU. 
I've not seen this with other combinations of Erlang \ RMQ.

The only way I can stop it is to restart the RabbitMQ service, but after a minute or so it starts again. 

Any ideas what this could be? 
Thanks.

Thanks Michal. This is the fix, specifically - https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/discussions/8541#discussioncomment-6164770

You should install Sysinternals handle.exe utility.

Thanks -
Luke
