  3. Excel run in background too many process

    Hello,

    The multiple Excel process running on your Windows 10 device might be due to a misconfiguration of your add-ins or extensions. That being said, we'll need more information to properly address your concern. Please answer the following:

    • When did the issue start?
    • Does the issue occur after startup?
    • Are you getting any error messages?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    • Are you using a macro on any of your workbooks?

    In the meantime, we recommend running Excel in safe mode to identify if any of your add-ins or extensions is causing the issue to happen. For the steps on how to run Excel in safe mode, please refer to this
    support article.
    Follow the steps under the section: Use the /safe option to open an Office application.

    We'll be waiting for your response.

    Is it Safe when my PC Running Multiple Processes of Same Application?

    svchost.exe multiple applications or threads running

    Hi Stacy, this is normal in Windows 10 . . .

    Svchost is a process in Windows that other applications run on top of . . .

    While there are a lot of them running, they use little if any resources and should not slow your system down.

    If your PC is running slow, I would look for another cause.

    Open Task Manager:

    When you PC is running slow, which hardware item is busy (Hard drive, CPU or RAM). Whichever item is running busy, click on that column header, so the arrow is facing down, what are the top 5 processes listed in the process list?
