I have cygwin and tmux installed. Every time I run a terminal I also run tmux and then fire up weechat. When I have to leave, I just close the terminal window and tmux keeps running in background... All good so far.
The problem is, every time I open a terminal again and attach to tmux session, a new bash process gets spawned, so if I close my terminal and attach my tmux session multiple times, I get several bash processes in Task Manager.
Am I doing something wrong or is that just how it's supposed to work? Thanks
EDIT: Detaching TMUX before closing Terminal Window fixes my issue.
This is what I see when closing the terminal while TMUX is still attached:

tmux is a terminal multiplexer, it is not a command interpreter, I assume the behaviour is normal. Every time you run a new terminal, the terminal run a new copy of command interpreter as bash, csh, zsh ... – matzeri – 2018-11-06T09:41:03.363
