Hi everyone :huh: I have noticed lately that my computer has been running a bit slower than normal. I opened the process window in the task manager and I noticed there are 14 instances of "media foundation protected pipeline exe" running. I was wondering if anyone knows what this is, and what program it might be associated with?

thanks
