The classification is divided into several elements, such as Tabs, Browser processes (Browser, GPU Process, Crashpad), Utility plugins (Utility: Audio Service Extensions), Dedicated &amp; Service workers, and more.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_131698\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-131698\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/microsoft-edge-task-manager-processes.jpg?resize=827%2C499&#038;quality=78&#038;strip=all&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Task Manager Edge processes view\" width=\"827\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/microsoft-edge-task-manager-processes.jpg?w=1034&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 1034w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/microsoft-edge-task-manager-processes.jpg?resize=300%2C181&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/microsoft-edge-task-manager-processes.jpg?resize=951%2C574&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 951w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/microsoft-edge-task-manager-processes.jpg?resize=150%2C91&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Task Manager Edge processes view<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>You will also notice that each process classification is described with an icon to make it easier to identify.

In this case, you would need to expand the group to select and set the mode for each of the child processes.<\/p>\n<p>You may see Eco mode enabled automatically on Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, and other supported apps. When this happens, the apps are testing with a lower priority and applying a specific set of power policies to improve performance.<\/p>\n<h3>Linux GUI apps on Windows Subsystem for Linux<\/h3>\n<p>Windows 10 build 21364 also ships with an updated version of the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) that supports installing and running GUI (graphical user interface) Linux applications like if they were natively installed on Windows.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_131697\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-131697\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/linux-gui-app-wsl-windows-10.jpg?resize=827%2C398&#038;quality=78&#038;strip=all&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Linux GUI app in WSL\" width=\"827\" height=\"398\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/linux-gui-app-wsl-windows-10.jpg?w=1024&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/linux-gui-app-wsl-windows-10.jpg?resize=300%2C144&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/linux-gui-app-wsl-windows-10.jpg?resize=1020%2C491&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 1020w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/linux-gui-app-wsl-windows-10.jpg?resize=150%2C72&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Linux GUI app in WSL<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In other words, you can now use the favorite Linux editors, tools, and applications.<\/p>\n<p>Once the app is installed, you would invoke it from the Linux terminal, and the app will appear on the desktop as if it was installed on Windows 10 with the same Linux visual styles. Furthermore, you can also register apps to appear and launch from the Start menu on Windows 10.<\/p>\n<h3>Notifications changes<\/h3>\n<p>As part of the notifications improvements, this flight updates the notification that reads &#8220;We need to fix your account&#8221; to make it clear to understand.
