Can I uninstall CCXProcess

Question

Does anyone know what will happen when I turn off CCXProcess?

CCXprocess is consuming so much CPU that I am going to disable it (then uninstall) it.

Research

I have read: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/adobe-background-processes.html.

Other articles/posts returned by search are less helpful/relvant.

Environment
- Win10 10.0.19042 build 19042
- Creative Cloud 5.3.1.470
- Apps 5.3.1.470
- CoreSync 4.5.0.6
- CCX Process 4.1.3.1
- CC Library 3.9.27.3
- Ps 22.1.1
- Lr 10.1.1 2101041610-8c69aa4e
- ACR 13.1

- Creative Cloud Desktop is disabled (and will be uninstalled)

More generally

Is it possible to run Ps and Lr Classic WITHOUT ANY of the creative cloud applications?
- Manual updates are fine.
- Creative cloud services (storage, stock, sync, et al.) are not useful.

Thanks,
