Thank you Julie_Deng for sharing this feature.
Please also add some details about process in Task Manager, in case we want to investigate and see whether it is working as expected.

Thanks for checking out startup boost and sharing your feedback, Reza!
When startup boost is turned on and no Edge browser window is open, you can find all running Edge processes by going to Task Manager -> Processes Tab -> Background Processes.
If you right click on the top naming roll (e.g. Name, Memory, CPU) you can add additional columns to Task Manager that will provide additional process details. You can also find more process details in Edge Browser Task Manage by pressing Shift+Esc while in Microsoft Edge or by going to the top corner of the browser and selecting more (…) -> More tools -> Browser Task Manager.
