Solution 2

You haven't: wstring releases memory whenever goes out of scope.

But my application is crashing when i make huge number of calls to COM server Interfaces

Then maybe you should go search for the cause of those crashes? You seem to be assuming that wstring is the cause? But if it really is, then you're doing something awfully wrong in your code, such as trying to store 50GB of data in RAM (I'm serious - I've seen worse!).

In any case, we cannot help you without seeing some of that code.

That's another (in fact, the only) problem.
