So I recently reset my PC as I didn't know what was causing me to use up 90% of my disk space when I couldn't find any of my games or folders. No big worries.

 

So I reset the PC and I start the normal stuff. Uninstalling windows apps, installing anti virus software and install chrome instead of edge. But when I first try to open up chrome it just shreds my PC fans into 100%. So I check the task manager and I first see it using 50 different tasks with the same name yet only one tab on the chrome. Then I download avast (anti virus) and the browser it has that includes some add blocking features I like. And same thing happens with this and the app itself. So every app that I download in my user hogs performance and opens more than one tab that it should have.

 

 

I don't why it is doing this but here is a photo from task manager,

 

Any tips of fix would be gladly accepted

 

PS: I did run a virus check and there isn't any on the PC. This also only happens to programs I deliberately download for my pc like games and such that is not included with the windows install. And I tried to end task everything but it won't budge, neither of the programs
