Since the latest W10 upgade, I've been having trouble with Chrome. It fails to run.
Last few mornings I'd click the icon and nothing would happen. Reboot.. no help. So I fired up Bing and reinstalled Chrome. That worked, but it said 'Chrome didn't shut down correctly.' No, that's not true.
Today, same problem. I downloaded it again, told it to Run, but nothing. After some search time I found a help page saying that it may already be running. I ran Task Manager and found 6 instances already running. Killed them all, and everything is fine again. Not sure why it ran in the background.
Not sure if this will keep happening, but I thought I'd pass this along in case anyone else is having issues.
Chrome runs multiple processes intentionally, it's a feature. Check
this article. I get somewhere over 20 processes every time I open Chrome.
I haven't experienced your problem, but I don't think the problem is related to the multiple Chrome processes. On edit: Well it might be if you have a low RAM PC.
