Windows 10: Chrome and other programs closing by itself

I've experienced this problem mainly with Google Chrome. The program will run normally for 20-30 minutes, then close all by itself. It did this problem while I was trying to type this. I've also had this problem with Microsoft Edge and the Hulu app from the Microsoft Store. I've tried updating Chrome, reinstalling Chrome, disabling extenions, removing extensions, running a virus scan, and even update my computer. I also ran sfc/scannow in the command prompt. Still nothing, it still closes automatically by itself. Not sure how or why, but can someone please help me?

can't close googel chrome ???

There is a setting in Google Chrome that allows it to continue running various tasks in the background after you have closed the browser window. If this is allowed in your Google Chrome settings, then it can indeed be running even when there is no visible
window. Personally, I don't allow Google Chrome to continue running in the background/ But that is for you to decide. To solve your immediate problem though, I suggest you turn off (don't allow) this option at least temporarily:

1. Start Google Chrome. There should of course be a visible browser window.
2. Access the Google Chrome menu by clicking on the three dots at the top right corner of the browser window (it's just below the standard Microsoft icons to minimize maximize and close the window).
3. Select "Settings" from that menu. Some basic Google Chrome settings should be displayed in the browser.
4. Go to the bottom of the "Basic Settings" page and click on "Advanced".
5. Locate the "System" group within the "Advanced Settings". Its near the bottom of this second settings page.
6. One of the "System" settings is "Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed".
   
   Turn this option OFF by sliding its little button to the left.
7. Close the Google Chrome browser.

There should now be no complaints about Google Chrome still running when you think it isn't.

If you would like to re-enable this feature later, just follow the same 7 Step procedure above.

Of course to re-enable the feature, replace "Turn this option OFF" in Step 6 with "Turn this option
ON".

I hope this helps.

problem uninstalling google chrome

Hi,

Since you already uninstalled Google Chrome using the Programs and Features, Google notifications may still be running in the background processes. We suggest that you follow these steps on how to end the Google Chrome process:

• On your keyboard, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
• Select Task Manager.
• Under Processes, locate Google Notifications or Google Chrome.
• Right click on them and select End Task.
• Double check under Programs and Features if Google Chrome is completely gone.

Let us know if these steps worked.
