I got them processes running. A HUGE amount. Thought I'd come here and show them to yall in case you can give me some info as to what they do and which ones I should shut down...

and if so, which service or file I need to delete or disable or uninstall in order to get the .exe to stop running for nothing.

Refer to SCREENIE:

lolclient.exe = League of Legends Client; should not be running all the time
cam_client.exe = not sure what that is
storm.exe = don't know what that is
adobe flash plugin executable = eh, wot? Maybe required in FireFox but I know an executable doesn't run in IE Flash.
lolpatcher.exe = League of Legends Patcher; should not be running all the time
rocketdock.exe = ?????
plugin-container.exe = claims to be more Firefox
Another flash plugin, wtf?
lollauncher.exe = turn off league of legends already!
ttsystray.exe = ???
rads_user_kernel.exe = ????
MSI_afterburner = obviously you know what that's about
RTSS.exe = part of Afterburner/EVA software
hwinfo64.exe = Hardware Info, probably shouldn't be running all of the time.

The rest are normal/critical. As far as I'm concerned, all of the above can be terminated.

ttsystray must be keyboard/mouse software.
Rocketdock = application launcher.

Adobe flash = should not be running at all times.
Rads_user_kernel.exe is part of LOL

plugin-container.exe = this seems fishy to me, i use FF and that is not running on FF 33/34. Mine is called "Plugin Container for Firefox (32-bit)" on Win 8.1

plugin-conatiner.exe is a part of firefox that I have always had......dunno what it does, clearly something with addons, but I could only guess as to the specific's. Win 7 same as OP's listed process name.

plugin-container.exe = this seems fishy to me, i use FF and that is not running on FF 33/34. Mine is called "Plugin Container for Firefox (32-bit)" on Win 8.1

The process is "plugin-container.exe", the description is "Plugin Container for Firefox". Nothing strange there.

Anyway 54 processess is nothing. I have 95 ATM. It is good to have an idea about what's going on, but if none of them causes trouble I'd say let it be.
