Technically, you are seeing three background processes and one application process. The background processes deal with rendering and other tasks. If you go to the Processes tab in Task Manager and sort the processes by name, there will be two categories shown: Apps and Background Processes. Ending the Spotify.exe task in the Apps category will close Spotify as well as all background processes.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Have a fantastic day!</P> Wed, 21 Jun 2017 21:39:57 GMT https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Windows/Multiple-spotify-exe-process/m-p/1718981#M24023 gryffyn 2017-06-21T21:39:57Z
