#11
I genuinely only had one Chrome window with one tab open, but 12 processes in Task Manager.
I've opened Chrome again and Task Manager displays 11 "chrome.exe *32" processes this time.
8 extensions, plus 1 window/tab = 9. I don't know if it is as simple as this, but does that mean 2 (sometimes 3) mysterious processes?
I don't have any background Chrome apps running in the background, as there aren't any shown in the systray, and I'd rather not turn off any background processes.
Also, as I have 64-bit Win 7, why do I have "32-bit" processes? Datapod's Task Manager shows only "chrome.exe".
I also have the probably unrelated problem of the Google search bar and frequently-visited sites not displayed when I launch Chrome, but displayed from the 2nd tab onwards and in every susequent Chrome window. Why do I initially get "about:blank"?
