Chrome starts running in background after startup
I searched for a solution, but I couldn't find anything. If anyone else is having the same problem, here is my solution.
I created a ".bat" file that contains command below:
Taskkill /IM chrome.exe /F
After saving bat file, you need to create a shortcut of it and move that shortcut into startup folder. Here is how to reach startup folder:
Run Win+R prompt:
shell:startup

Run chrome in backgroud: unchecked/disabled
task scheduler: no process at all (not even google update tasks)
msconfig: checked, there is no active item related to google.
extensions: disabled but nothing changed.
anti-virus scan: done but nothing found.
But chrome is still running in background after startup. When I run chrome by myself, those extra processes are still there. When I close those extra ones, it doesnt effect my browser (browser is not closing, extentions are fine). I wouldn't mind if it isn't draining my cpu power but it is draining it. It literally slows my computer down. Also heats my computer up ofc.
Task manager screenshots:
It slows my computer especially when I play games. Sometimes I forget to close those processes and for example run gta v, fps is really low, computer gets too hot..When I kill those processes, everything works better. I don't know why this is happening. Any solution?

Cruwiel over 5 yearsLike i said in my post, that option is already unchecked. And I dont see chrome icon in system tray. I know most of these stuffs. There has to be another problem. I tried all these basic things. None of them worked. The other reason why I posted this is, I wanted to see if anyone else is having the same problem? if not, it has to be related to my pc. Maybe I need to install windows again..
