In 11, the terminal app can be set as default console app, so you won't see conhost.exe, ever. That's not possible in 10.

  That's a very marginal improvement, since the only time you'd see conhost in 10 now is when a program explicitly launches it.

    and when you launch any random .bat file.

      Or you just change your default program for batch files.
      • vetinari 4y ago
        batch files are handled by cmd.exe, not by conhost.exe. Cmd.exe in turn opens default console. Similarly for powershell, python, farmanager and other console-based apps.
