Why does Mumble require me to close Steam or Chrome on Setup?

What does it change within Steam that makes it necessary and why does it touch it at all?

Sorry, I didn't downvote you =X Also, the close vote, I believe, is because Mumble is not game related. It's more like a Mumble issue, not a game issue. so off-topic. But, as I'm not sure about it, I'm not voting (yet) to close your question. PS: The comment was a funny comment only =/ – Michel Jan 8 at 11:44

I think it is very well on topic. Gaming related software is allowed, so this is related to gaming since mumble is used by many gamers. Also, it relates to Steam. So I can't see why it should be offtopic. – NoneOfYourBusiness Jan 8 at 12:14

Does it happen only when you install it, or does it continue when you try to use it. i.e. Can you USE Mumble the same time as Steam and Chrome? – Ilya Melamed Jan 8 at 13:00

I'd bet it's either some system/common file or the app is just being overprotective and asking you to shut down most/all open applications. I know several people who use steam and mumble and don't have problems, so don't assume this means they interfere – Ben Brocka Jan 8 at 13:59
