Chromium Embedded Framework Hosts for Guild Wars 2 keeps running even when GW2 is closed. It even uses a significant amount of CPU and Memory.

edit: doesn't seem to happen when GW2 closes normally. However sometimes the game client becomes unresponsive when I try to close it and I have to force close with Windows 11. This is when this issue occurs. Still a mystery why it uses so many resources.

Same here last 2 days with multiple copies. Causes massive lag spikes any time more than 5 people are around me

I have had issues with multiple copies running on both PC and laptop preventing GW2 to launch. This is happening after logging out of the game normally.

Closing them manually means I can launch the game but its annoying and frustrating to have this happen every time I try to launch game.

Not sure when this started but has been happening for at least a couple of weeks.
