Bitwarden Closes on open, runs in background and uses a lot of resources (Windows 11)

Whenever I open bitwarden, it has a white screen, then closes. It then continues to run in the background and uses a lot of resources. Whenever I open it again, a new process begins, and the old one still runs. Help!

Sounds like Windows to me. Have you tried rebooting your machine? How about reinstalling the app?

Hello,

i have a similar question. I use Windows 11 and Bitwarden always uses ~0.4% CPU and sometimes ~0,2% GPU even if it is only in the background. Is there a special reason for this?

Yes, I tried both multiple times
