My Browser (SM using Windows 7) is working VERY slowly....essentially

So I started the Task Manager and found a LONG LIST of 'stuff' running
in the background ! Junk unrelated to what should be there !
No viruses or Malware found with Malaware Bytes.
What could cause my system to load up 20 or 30 'programs' to be loaded ?
There are two tabs on Windows' Task Manager which show running "stuff".
Which are you looking at? The first tab is "Applications" which just
shows the main visible applications you use, and is usually quite a
short list unless you're aware you're running a lot of applications.
The second is "Processes" which shows all the background services and
other processes which are running. There can be a surprising number
even when you're seemingly not doing anything, and even more if you tick
the box to show processes from all users (a freshly installed VM is
showing around 8 processes under my account and 35 in total). They're
not necessarily a problem unless they're using a lot of CPU or memory or
accessing the disk or network a lot.
If this is not SM related, is there a Windows 7 "News Group" I could ask ?
There used to be newsgroups for Windows (and other MS products) at
msnews.microsoft.com. I'm not certain, but I have a feeling they did
away with the news server some time back, and it's all web forums now
(e.g. <https://answers.microsoft.com/>)
