@Vallient Maybe it's the auto updater?

@leocg According to Process Explorer, it does open with the auto updater but after a few seconds it closes itself and 2 processes. The ghost processes still stay though.

The same happens with Chrome, so it's probably just something related to Chromium.

@leocg Is it 2 processes for you as well or is it 3/4? I am consistently getting 3 as opposed to 2. And sometimes 4.

@Vallient Would need to check but I guess it's something around 3 in Opera.

So I completely resetted my computer, as in formatting it and getting a fresh install of windows. After the fresh install I had 2 extra processes, but after I logged in to sync my profile, I had 3. After reinstalling Opera again, upon checking the fresh install, I had 3 extra processes permantely. Hmmm
