Over the years I've noticed that two general types of programs are often invisible in the task manager. Audio programs, including audio editing software, and the type of cryptocurrency programs called 'cryptonote'.
It is annoying when programs try to sneak around and lurk but is there some kind of security threat also in that annoying aspect of some programs?
Recently I used wavepad which is audio editing software, and it installed and ran fine, but it does not appear in task manager. That's an excellent program but why are they hiding, and what?
