Title: [Solved] Custom process killer not working
Post by: Bazza on January 18, 2026, 08:51:39 PM
I added a button the Custom Process Killer area called "msedgewebview2.exe" and when I click it, it says the specified process is no longer running but it's still showing in the Task Manager. I even tried this as admin. Maybe a bug?

Hi Bazza. This is not a bug. That process is a protected system one, so while AlomWare Toolbox can kill it, Windows (the OS) just immediately restarts it. This makes it look like it was never killed. You can verify this yourself by killing it in the Task Manager: it gets restarted again.

Understood.
