These include the service portion of your anti-malware products, updaters for third-party products and Windows 7, and services for power management and the Windows Live Sign-in Assistant Manager. Another process that causes confusion and fear in the minds of users is the innocent 'Search Indexer. When the hard disk light stays lit for prolonged periods of time, it's normal to worry about what's going on, but it's usually down to this benign and useful part of Windows 7.
It simply indexes all your files for use in Windows Search. Its index is used when you type in the name of a file in the Start Menu search box and when you search for files in Explorer.
It's even used by Windows 7's Libraries feature. Another vital top-level process is 'explorer. This process runs the Windows 7 desktop and is the mother process for all your running applications, including those that sit in the system tray of the task bar, ready for use. Traditionally, processes, services and applications are viewed using Task Manager. Task Manager sorts full applications, underlying system processes and services into three tabs, but it doesn't show you everything.
Where are all those 'svchost. Task Manager hides a lot from you, and when you're investigating system activity, this limited view of what's going on is to be avoided.
It has an active support forum. Right-click an empty space in the taskbar and select Task Manager. Or right-click on windows taskbar and select "Start task manager". Do not forget to check "Show processed from all users" if available. A built in program can reveal the running processes. Go to the command prompt Type cmd in the Start search bar and in the command window type qprocess. After pressing enter, a list of running processes follows. If needed, the window can be stretched to show more of the results.
Type exit to close the command window. Sign up to join this community. The best answers are voted up and rise to the top.

I've already had one or two websites asking me to verify if I am a robot, several times in , because they detect a lot of activity from my network. My current, 5-year old desktop ran like a dream on Windows Vista and I've also been an IE user for years. A free upgrade to Windows 10 came and I naturally switched to it, but I was still an IE 11 user until Windows 10 v I switched to MS-Edge after that only because some websites that I regularly visit, started to 'demand' the abandonment of IE All things considered, everything came to a head when the NSA revealed a big hole in Windows 10 back in January This is the reason why I've been posting again actively in the MS Community this year, after a hiatus of about 3-years: to stabilize Win 10 v, upgrade my desktop pc hardware and finally switch over to Windows 10 H2.
In this instant case: the still-lingering MS-Edge child processes are no more! The Microsoft Edge Performance team took a look at this post and provided the following threads for additional information on the how and why of Edge's memory usage they suggested to read them in this order based on the content :.
Adding a contact email will allow our Performance team to follow up directly and collect information if needed. You know before chromium on a similar blog, when people asked why chrome takes forever when many windows, and also opening closing windows. I reported the correct answer before anybody else, that it's because they are using process instead of threads for each tab. While it gives only benefit of a crashed process doesn't effect other process where a thread could, it means the o.
And that was reason because windows wasn't optimized to allocate that much memory quickly, cause that's a lot of memory and people don't do that often. So now we see chromium did ancknowledge that issue only after myself come to correct conclusion. But of course, they do it in way, to make it out like they "knew" what they were doing all along, well you are still wrong.
Why do you need a seperate process to handle web pages, randering, gpu, etc? When it all part of one logical program the web browser. And you see you still miss the point, that a process ISN"T a unit of execution, it's actually just a data structure, a gb data range, that happen to be associated with at least one thread.
So your still wrong, really, again, in your process use in design, but now you've not coupled it to browser pages. Your welcome ounce again chromium even though I used edge, and now they force me to use windows chromium variant.
At end of day, html and js does the same thing it did 20 years ago, and it don't require this much memory of 2 process let alone 9. While windows has been apparently investing a lot into open source linux based software apparently for some reason, there no reason to believe anybody was payed well by microsoft to write this. They are basically doing what apple and google have been doing which is stealing free software and proprietarizign it as their own, and selling originally free software.
Basically you get what you pay for. And still nobody purchases it of course so it makes money from marketing mechanisms. Question: Why does MS Edge maintain so many application processes?
