CCXProcess.exe – What it is?

What is CCXProcess.exe

CCXProcess.exe is an executable that belongs to Adobe Creative Cloud, which are a set of applications for graphic design, video editing, web development and photography. It’s a legitimate and safe executable that you can find in your Task Manager if you are using Adobe Creative Cloud. The file should always be located in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Creative Cloud. You can check its location by opening Task Manager, right-clicking on the process and clicking Properties. The location will be displayed in the General tab. You can also check the Digital Signature tab to check the name of signer.

The legitimate executable file should not be causing any issues whatsoever. The only reason you likely noticed it is because you checked Task Managed and noticed an unfamiliar process. However, it should be mentioned that malware can disguise itself as legitimate processes in order to avoid being detected by users. If anti-malware software is installed, it would immediately be detected as malicious. However, many users do not have such a program, and may not notice that malware is disguising itself as a legitimate process.

Do you need to remove CCXProcess.exe

The legitimate process shouldn’t be causing any issues to your computer so there is no reason why you should want to delete CCXProcess.exe. Since it’s a legitimate process that belongs to Adobe Creative Cloud, deleting it would cause problems for the applications. However, if the process is disguised malware, than you certainly need to get rid of it. If you don’t use Adobe Creative Cloud but the process is running, or the file is located somewhere else, you need to immediately scan your computer with anti-malware software. The anti-malware would detect and remove CCXProcess.exe without you needing to do anything.
