    Programs restarting in background processes of task manager

    I have many programs restart in the background processes of task manager. I close them out, and after a while they are there again. I do not know why these programs are running in the background, and why they are returning. These are some of them that
    keep coming back

    Settings

    Weather

    Photos

    Movies & TV

    I keep removing them by using the "End Task" and they seem to return for no reason.

    Can I end a Process using the original WM task manager?

    I have a Verizon Moto Q9c, I can end the application but there is no option to end a single process only the grayed out option to end all the processes. I just want the option to end processes that run in the background when they don't need to be. The
    process I was trying to stop at the time was the My Phone Runtime, since I use My Phone with the manual setting I don't need it open.

    Edit: I am using the WM task manager not the Motorola task manager (which doesn't even have the option to view processes)

    Unable to end background processes in task manager

    Program running a background process?

    I'm running Corel Video Studio 2018, and it's updates function shows characteristics of a background process:

    - the program has an auto check daily plus a manual option for updates

    - manually checked, presented with an option of downloading an update and Ok'd, evidence of any activity vanishes from the program workspace, yet the connected internet modem activity light begins running hot as the download happens

    - it's repeatable over several up-date cycles

    The evidence seems to suggest a background activity - whilst the program/PC is free to use for other things. Several software packages do this.

    However, a check in task manager/processes, show all, does not display any info of a related background process for any Corel or Video Studio program. If a background process is being used by the software, MUST it be listed in the task manager/processes
    list?

    Platform is windows 7 home sp1 64bit plus the important patches.
