Does Sierra call up JxBrowser ever?

I have JxBrowser, many copies, running and am trying to figure out what is opening all these copies and clogging up my machine....
Thanks

If this is set to be your default browser, then when you select one of the options from the "Help" menu in Sierra Chart, then it will open that browser to that particular page. For instance, "Help >> Account Control Panel" will open your default browser to the Account Control Panel web page for your Sierra Chart Account.

Sierra Chart does NOT open any browser windows without your specific interaction to do so.

JxBrowser is not my default. Also, 20 copies of JxBrowser can be running in task manager with nothing new on the screen, it runs in the background doing god knows what..and god knows what is calling it up.. it is not your normal browser. Mozilla is my default.

It is listed as “Chromium” in task manager which I do not even have installed on the machine. Nightmare.

It has some kind of Java connection. Does Sierra use Java?

Sierra Chart does not use Java, or anything other than standard HTML, which is why our website looks the way it does (we do not want to use any "fancy" tools that only create issues).

Whatever is occurring with this JxBrowser, it is not being caused by Sierra Chart. Personally, we would recommend removing it completely from your machine if you do not know what it is doing or why. Particularly since you are not using it as your default browser.

The fact that it is showing as "Chromium" in the task manager is probably because it is based on the "Chromium" architecture. Surprisingly, the Microsoft Edge is based on this as well.
