Multiple Runtime Broker processes running on your system can be quite confusing and make you wonder why they are necessary. In this article, we will explore the reasons behind this phenomenon and provide answers to some commonly asked questions about it.<\/p>\n

Firstly, let’s understand what Runtime Broker actually is. Runtime Broker is a Windows process responsible for managing permissions for universal apps. It ensures that these apps have limited access to system resources and cannot perform any unauthorized actions. Whenever you launch a universal app, the Runtime Broker process is initiated to facilitate the security checks and manage the app’s permissions.<\/p>\n

**So, why are multiple Runtime Broker processes running?** The simple answer is that each Runtime Broker process is associated with a specific universal app. Since multiple apps can be running simultaneously, each app requires its own instance of Runtime Broker to manage its permissions independently. Therefore, having multiple Runtime Broker processes running is completely normal and necessary for the proper functioning of the universal apps.<\/p>\n
