Likely it came installed as a freebie or prerequisite of another program, third party useless software is something I dislike too and disable whenever I can. As a last line of defense you can upload the file to https://www.virustotal.com/ for a scan. Right-click the process and select "open file location". Once you know where it is, use the browse button on VT's page to select it for upload.

This is not malware (it's legitimate software most of the time). However, it does uses up your Internet connection like a P2P program, so if you're capped, might want to take a look at its data usage. There should be no harm in disabling it.
This is used by a lot of software vendors to get things downloaded and installed to your computers. |
