    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.

    Based on the description, I understand your question is related to shell.

    Seeing the Windows Shell Experience Host process suspended in your Task Manager is generally not a cause for concern. This process is responsible for managing various graphical elements of the Windows interface, such as the Start menu, taskbar transparency, and other visual effects12.

    When it’s suspended, it usually means that Windows is optimizing system resources, especially if those graphical elements are not actively being used. This can help save power and improve overall system performance. As long as machine is working normally, there is not a cause for concern.

    Have a nice day. 

    Best Regards,

    Molly
