    Hidden chrome processes... what are they for/doing? [​IMG]

    When I opened process explorer and chromes internal task manager the number of chrome processes in each was very different and I would like to know why
    chromes internal task manager listed 12 and I'm fine with the 12 it lists but process explorer listed 30 chrome processes
    does anyone know why? or how to find out?
    WinVer: 10 home ver 1903
    Chrome: Version 78.0.3904.87 (Official Build) (64-bit)

    :)

    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.
