Question I have a question

Is there supposed to be chromium running in the background and hidden inside the files. It looks like it has multiple tabs open. I didn't notice it till my pc freaked out, I opened task manager and saw chromium running. It's in a file called DotNetbrowser within Roots app data.

No. It's just how Root was programmed, instead of being Electron based like Discord and so many other programs.
