The chrome.exe process belongs to Google's Chrome web-browser. The process is visible in the sense that the process has a display window which should be found in the task-bar (usually with a title of a current web page).
It is common to find multiple instances of the chrome.exe process running as the browser creates a new session (thread) for each browser tab.
Chrome is an open source web browser developed by Google. Chrome is based on open source code, the rendering engine of WebKit and certain components and functionality of FireFox. Chrome was released as a beta on the 2nd of September, 2008.
