Question Advice on monitoring program activity

[Dave Russo]

Greetings brethren, an odd thing has happened, very rarely, I get a caption connection lost because you just opened another browser(which I did not, in fact I did nothing) anyone know what may cause this, and as far as monitoring background activity (easiest way to do this) Thanks

Where do you receive that message?

It was from chess.com during a game when this has happened, and the site gave a response when connection was broken and why (with caption)

Probably an extension or a browser setting causes this. Or did you recently update your browser?

not exactly on point... other day I was running mullvad vpn in VMware_win10, set for isolation, ie, no crossover with Host, and I opened proton vpn on the Host, & mullvad on VM disconnected itself, alerted me, and then reconnected itself. also Edge is default running in the background unless you check and check again that it isn't, especially after an Edge update which comes along a few times a week. Not sure how closely chess.com monitors online games, but I understand from chess youtubers they monitor to determine if a user is running stockfish to "cheat" | not that you would
