Why do I have so many Microsoft Edge running in the background?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When you use the Microsoft Edge browser, each tab, extension, and plug-in runs its separate process; hence, you see multiple processes. However, if you are running the browser and still see it running, we suggest you update Edge or manually close the process from Task Manager. Due to a bug, the Close all Edge process is not working. Once the fix is released, you will no longer face this issue.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">2. Is it safe to delete the Microsoft Edge WebView2 runtime?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To run Office and other Microsoft apps, one should keep WebView 2 installed and running.

Also, there are no policy settings that you can disable to avoid installing WebView 2 Runtime.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">4. How do I stop Microsoft Edge WebView2 from running in the background?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To stop Microsoft Edge WebView 2 from running in the background, first close the process from Task Manager and then uninstall it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Note<\/strong> &#8211; If any of the apps you are using require WebView2, you might face functionality issues with them after uninstalling them.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">5.
