About this tag
The out-of-process tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about running code or components in a separate process from the main application. A prominent example is JetBrains ReSharper 2025.2, which moves heavy analysis out of Visual Studio's UI process into a dedicated 64-bit worker process, reducing UI freezes by 61%. Another topic involves calling WinRT components from Win32 processes via the Desktop Bridge, where out-of-process execution enables package identity and component registration. These threads highlight performance improvements and architectural changes achieved by isolating work outside the main process.
