Lms.exe and uns.exe? SHould I remove these?
Hello - New here, but love the forums. Its answered a lot of my questions in the past.
Anyway, I was looking at all my processes today and I noticed two Intel proccesses lms.exe and uns.exe.
Ive done some research, and I cant exactly figure out what these do, but most people are saying the arent needed and to remove them. However, when I try to remove/stop the process, it says "access denied" and wont allow me to stop them.
Ive run multiple scans; Norton, Avg, anti-malware, superspyware, etc and my system appears clean. However, I still see these processes running and cant seem to stop them. Some research I did say they can be malicious, some say they arent be reccomend removing them.
So, my main questions are:
1.) What are these processes, and are they sending information out of my local computer/network?
2.) How do I stop these since Im getting access denied? I am the administrator and only user on my PC.
Lastly, Ive read I can uninstall Intel(R) Active Management Technology User Notification Service, but I dont even see that in my program list to remove. Instead I see: "Intel Management Engine Components". Im afraid if I uninstall that it may have adverse affects on my PC.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
BTW, these processes dont have high CPU usage (to my knowledge), I just notice them in processes.
