Windows 11 Task Manager will duplicate itself like a virus if you try to close it!
A Windows 11 bug is duplicating the Task Manager process when you use the 'X' close button to exit it. This means Task Manager won’t quit on Windows 11, sending each instance to the background.
The October 2025 optional update (Build 26200.7019/26100.7019, which released with new Start menu, accidentally broke Task Manager close button for some users (not everyone will run into this issue). Microsoft has confirmed the issue and is working on a fix.
If you're affected, don't use the close button to close Task Manager, as it'll create ghost entries, which use your RAM and CPU. To exit the Task Manager, use “End task” instead.
