3DxProfileServer.exe listed twice in task manager?

[Magic Man]

Just a quick check, running 3DxWare 10.9.0.3773 but am seeing two instances of 3dxProfileServer.exe running in Task Manager (Win11)

Is this normal and expected?

[AmroSalih]

I can confirm that this is the expected behaviour. When 3DxWare is active there are processes such as "3DxService.exe", "3dxnlserver.exe" "3dxpiemenus.exe", 2x "3DxProfileServer.exe", "3DxVirtualLCD.exe".
When you open 3Dconnexion Settings you additionally have "3DxSmartUi.exe"

Are you experiencing any issues such as performance dropping?

Thanks for the reply. No apparent issues, just thought it 'odd' that two instances of the same process appear to be running at the same time, but if that is expected then that's fine.
