在使用Microsoft Edge时，如果你打开任务管理器^{(open Task Manager)}，你会注意到会有一个针对Microsoft Edge进程提到的数字。它可以是 2 或 10 或 17。如果您进一步扩展，您会注意到有多个Microsoft Edge实例，即使您只有一个Edge实例正在运行。为什么任务管理器^{(Task Manager)}中有多个Microsoft Edge和Microsoft Edge更新服务实例？

为什么有多个Microsoft Edge实例？

与早期不同，每个浏览器都运行多个实例。每个选项卡都是一个进程，扩展程序或与主进程一起运行的任何其他内容也是一个进程。如果您正在流式传输任何视频服务，例如Netflix，您还应该在列表中看到Media Foundation Protected Pipeline EXE。

如果您终止任何子进程，您可能还会看到一个或多个选项卡关闭或扩展程序崩溃。但是，请确保您没有任何未保存的工作，否则您可能无法恢复。

这种方法可确保如果其中一个选项卡崩溃，其余选项卡仍保持打开状态。早些时候，如果任何一个选项卡曾经崩溃，它就会关闭所有完整的浏览器。这导致了工作的损失和未保存或介于两者之间的工作。使用线程让它变得简单，但对于普通用户来说，看到这么多线程可能会让人不知所措。

Microsoft Edge 更新^{(Microsoft Edge Update)}有哪些多个实例？

根据微软^(Microsoft)的说法，这是一个错误，很快就会修复。Asper this thread in the Microsoft Answer s by Alexandra-R：这不是预期的行为，团队正在努力发布修复程序。当修复可用时，我将在此处更新，以便那些由于这些额外过程而删除/阻止可执行文件的人可以手动更新。

MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe是一个经常连接到Microsoft Server以检查和下载  Microsoft Edge Web 浏览器的新功能的进程。虽然可以有多个线程来下载以加快进程，但如果有太多，那就是一个问题。也就是说，微软^(Microsoft)可能会减少实例的数量，但它的数量会更少。

我希望这篇文章向您解释了为什么任务管理器^{(Task Manager)}中有多个Microsoft Edge和Microsoft Edge更新服务实例。

Why are there multiple instances of Microsoft Edge in Task Manager?

When using Microsoft Edge, if you open Task Manager, then you will notice that there will be a number mentioned against the Microsoft Edge process. It can be 2 or 10 or 17. If you further expand, you will note there are multiple instances of Microsoft Edge even though you only have one instance of Edge running.  Why are there multiple instances of Microsoft Edge and Microsoft Edge update service in the Task Manager?

Why are there multiple instances of Microsoft Edge?

Unlike early days, every browser runs multiple instances. Each of the tabs is a process, so is the extension or anything else that is running with the primary process. If you are streaming any video service like Netflix, you should also see Media Foundation Protected Pipeline EXE in the list.

If you kill any of the subprocesses, you may also see one or more of the tabs closed or an extension crash. However, make sure you don’t have any unsaved work, else you may not be able to recover.

This approach makes sure that if one of the tabs crashes, the rest of the tabs remain open. Earlier, if any of the tabs used to crash, it took down all the complete browser. This resulted in the loss of work and work which was not saved or was in between of something. Using thread made it simple, but it can be overwhelming to see so many for a regular user.

What are there multiple instances of Microsoft Edge Update?

According to Microsoft, this is a bug and will be fixed soon.  Asper this thread in the Microsoft Answers by Alexandra-R: This is not intended behavior, and the team is working on releasing a fix. I’ll update here when the fix is available so those of you that have deleted/blocked the executable due to these extra processes can update manually.

MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe is a process that often connects to Microsoft Server to check and download new features of the  Microsoft Edge web browser. While there can be multiple threads to download to speed up the process, but if there are too many, then that is a problem. That said, Microsoft may reduce the number of instances, but it’s going to be there just less.

I hope the post explained to you why there are there multiple instances of Microsoft Edge and Microsoft Edge update service in Task Manager.
