Is there a way to find out what each process being run is? There are some processes running that I can’t figure out are what.
In some cases it’s possible to search your hard drive for the image name, but that doesn’t always work :-/
Also, what’s the difference between being run by <your username>, System, Local Service and Network Service?

being run by your username means that an action you performed created that task - whether it was a checkbox saying “run at startup” or if you double clicked internet explorer…
here’s a whole bunch of stuff on services from miscrosoft for ya:
