A Windows 10 WTF

[Tom Glod]

Nope..its not sharing any resources, each one runs isolated in its own
folder.  Yep... you can set affinity manually using the task manager.

The only thing shared between them is the name of the stack window...I
guess I'll test that first.

This is weird and I don't like it ..... but it only affects me I guess. :)
Thanks everyone for trying.
