SYMPTOMS
When Partition Manager (Partmgr.sys) receives the Plug and Play IRP_MN_QUERY_DEVICE_RELATIONS| RemovalRelation command, Partition Manager forwards the call to lower level drivers. However, the results are not sustained, so the device does not include remove relations, and must be removed individually. This behavior may cause a memory leak.



CAUSE
This problem may occur if Partition Manager does not combine the results that are reported by the lower level driver, but instead overwrote a memory pointer.
