Windows 10: Strange issue regarding apps in task manager

Hello, I have a SP4 and of late I noted a strange issue regarding my device's performance. I see more edge apps and other apps in my task manager than what I am running and my machine becomes slow. Why am I seeing this problem? Any help is appreciated.RegardsSuman

No restart button in task manager

another easy way to kill tasks, download and install Winaero Tweaker(free) and theres a setting to add a Kill non responding tasks using the desktop right click menu. When you place your cursor on the desktop anywhere and right click the option is at the top of the list, Very handy and you dont have to go through all those steps and well Winaero Tweaker has alot of cool Windows tweaks. Just posting a different suggestion, Im sure your ok with what was suggested here.
