Been dealing with this problem pretty much ever since I have gotten this laptop. Tried looking up any information I could online if this is normal, but didn't find anything. Decided to ask some of my friends is this is something I should be concerned about, and they all agreed that what's going on is very strange. I also never connected my phone to this laptop, so I'm confused as to why it's constantly shown as running??

Whenever I tried to find the programs on my laptop to uninstall, they just aren't there for some reason. Tried to then delete the files themselves, but it literally won't allow me to even when I give myself administrator access. Tried installing a program to forcefully remove all the programs, and again, no such luck.

Every once in awhile, I open task manager to stop the programs from running, but shortly after doing so, they just start back up again. 

Please let me know if this is normal, or if I should be concerned about this!!

Hello! Thank you for reaching out! These will be running in the background as a part of the Samsung package preinstalled with the Samsung laptops. They are for easy connection for your Samsung phone and or tablet. This is normal, as long as the processes are not taking up 100% of the CPU or RAM it will be fine.
