I used exiftool.exe on 300 files.
It seems to have done its job.
But... Now, in taskmanager, there is 300x a running exiftool.exe proces!
This must be a bug?

Without know how you did this in the first place, it's not possible to answer this.

Exiftool doesn't create a process for each file it reads and it exits completely once done.  Something else is happening on your end.
"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype
