You can't get rid of it. It's a utility library required to run the application.

But it wasn't an older version of Adobe Illustrator.

Removing it from the tax manager releases a lot of my RAM.

it's the plugin that manages Background Saving, you might try disabling it in the Preferences window to see if it helps

@CarlosCanto Do you know if any or all of these AIRobin folders be deleted without harm? Are they necessary to keep in case a user rolls back to an earlier version of an app? Thanks!

I guess that these files get recreated if they're missing. Try renaming or moving the folder that matches your current illustrator version, then restart Illustrator and see what happens. If the a new folder gets recreated, compare the contents to the renamed original folder to decide whether it's safe to delete.
