Another variant of this problem is that the task manager always selects the active tab when you invoke it. The scroll-to-top behavior means that while the active tab is selected it is often not visible. This is all quite annoying. I don't know how long this has been happening but it might be significant that I found this bug when I went to file the same issue, just three days after the bug was filed.

I think around Chrome 67. Chrome 68 definitely has it. Extremely annoying.

We were unable to reproduce this bug on windows 10 using latest canary #72.0.3611.0. If this bug still reproduces for you, please reopen or file a new issue. 

Thanks!

I can reproduce this on canary. You need to shrink the task manager enough so that all of the processes won't fit, then close the task manager, and reopen it. The list of processes will be scrolled all the way to the top, even if this makes the currently active process hidden.

No scrolling motion is seen - the task manager opens in this state.

The task manager should always open up with the active process/tab visible.
