I can't help you with that very much: I'm a Windows analphabet and have
very little clue about process management there. Perhaps more knowledgeable
folks can chime in.

There's a chapter in the Emacs documentation dedicated to process management
under Windows: either locally in your Emacs installation, accessible with
C-h i, then Microsoft Winows > Windows Processes, or as HTML in the 'net:

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Windows-Processes.html#Windows-Processes

There is a way to list all processes Emacs "thinks" are running as its
sub-processes: M-x list-processes (M-x usually is Alt-x, depending on
your keyboard mapping).
