Windows 10: Number in parentheses besides the apps in Task Manager.

What are the numbers in parentheses beside apps in Task Manager? And what do they mean?

One answer i read for this on internet was telling that it is the number of components used by that particular app. But I didn't get what is meant by components.Can anyone explain??

What are the numbers in parentheses beside apps in Task Manager? And what do they mean?

About a year ago I noticed that whenever I click "more details" at the bottom of Task Manager, I noticed that these numbers in parentheses show up beside the open apps that weren't there before; an example would be: Google Chrome (11) or Battle.Net App (5).
What purpose do these numbers serve? They only started turning up about a year ago and I've had this computer for four years now.

P.S I know this question doesn't fit in this category but I cannot find a category suitable for this question.

 

Win 10 Task Manager - Startup list - numbers next to items


Oh, that's interesting! I never in a billion times ten years guessed it meant that!

This is what I see in my TM startup list:

Win 10 Task Manager - Startup list - numbers next to items

I have (15) next to Google Chrome in my apps list on the task manager. I pulled down the arrow and there is a list of 15 Google Chrome items but what does that really mean to me? I only have 4 tabs open so have no clue what the (15) is representing. They all have good sized memory numbers.
