What can cause FMEWorkbench.exe to keep running, after I close the application?

The application itself is closed. And when I restart the application, a new fmeworkbench.exe process is started.

This happens when I haven't done anything in the application yet. Didn't run a workspace or created one.

 

I also tested it with the simplest workspace I could think of: a Creator with an Inspector. In that case the process fmedatainspector.exe is started. That process also never closes.

 

I use FME Desktop version 2021.1 as part of ArcGIS Pro on a Windows 2016 VMWare machine.

 

Does anyone have an idea what might cause this behavior?

That doesn't sound right. My first suggestion would be to reinstall FME.
