Solved Windows Sidebar

Hi all,

I just noticed when looking in task manager that I have 2 instances of sidebar.exe showing in the processes tab. This is true for both my desktop running 64 bit and my laptop running 32 bit. Both are using different amounts of memory and both are running under the same user name. Is this normal and if so why are there two instances?

thanks

This is normal. The 2 instances are
1. The icon on the taskbar
2. The sidebar application

Your welcome.
Hope I helped you
