Scary Bug: Endless taskbar.exe processes opening.

Open OneSlize opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Had the same endless process taskgroups.exe opening up thousand of processes and unable to close them all. Thought I had a ransomware attack suddenly start. Kind of freaked me out man.

Liked the program until then. I feel like this a severe bug that needs fixing before anything else, I note that another user has posted the same issue and it's not been responded too.

Duplicate of #94, try to keep it to one thread and just posting the comment there

I will look into it, and I am sorry for not working on this bug for a while. I'll see what I can do to reproduce it as it hasn't been the normal behavior experienced by me or a lot of others.

TaskbarGroups.zip

Try this release with the .exe alone I may have identified a potential cause for why it would be looping like that.

Place this into its own folder as it would generate the normal folders as usual.

Found what was causing the issue on my end. Windows Defender Ransomware Protection needed to be off.
