How to manage browsers processing in Windows 10?

Question

Hi,

I opened three browsers; Firefox, Chrome & Opera in Windows 10.

I didn’t open any website in any browsers.

However, I see browsers are utilizing more process.

Can I control it?

If yes, let me know, how to manage browsers processing so that it doesn’t utilize more processing in idle mode?

This is what you call multi-process architecture. Other processes are running in the browser aside from open web pages, examples include extensions/plug-ins, multiple tabs etc... You can control it to a point, but there will always be multiple processes.
