Hello,
Thank you for posting your question on our forum.
Microsoft Edge might keep running in the background even after you close the main window because background apps and processes are enabled in your system settings. These processes help keep extensions updated, manage notifications, and maintain sync features, allowing the browser to launch more quickly when reopened.
To fully close MS Edge and prevent it from running in the background, you can:
1. Check Background Settings in Edge:
- Open MS Edge.
- Go to Settings > System and Performance.
- Turn off the toggle for "Continue running background apps when Microsoft Edge is closed".
2. Close Background Processes via Task Manager:
- Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.
- Find any processes named msedge.exe.
- Select them and click End Task.
If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us!
