Are these necessary apps that were installed with my Creative Cloud app or malware?

Which OS do you have?

 

I ask because I don't have all those desktop icons on my OS (Win10).  But to answer your question, they are NOT malware.  CoreSync, Creative Cloud Desktop App, CC Installer, etc... are indeed part of your Creative Cloud installation.
