Why we have those 3 process runing now in PS CC 2017? I would like to not have those 3 process runing while using PS, in a previous version of PS i never saw those runing:
Some idea how to Disable those 3 process?
PD: I tried to search for the service to Disable it but with no luck.
See if going to Edit>Preferences>General, unchecking Show Messages and restarting photoshop makes any difference.

Adobe would need to answer you question as the what there there for. You could try ending those three processes and see if Photoshop CC 2017 still functions. Photoshop cc2017 may however required them to be running like the three CEPHtmlEngines.exe process. Whe you close down Photoshop CC 2017 they also close down.

I can't end any of those 3, they back instantly.
And yes if i close PS, the processes end.

So if Photoshop CC 2017 keeps starting them and you do not want them close CC 2017 and open CC 2015.5. Who knows what CC 2017 is usent the for a new feature or a changed feature most likely. Perhaps someone the works for Adobe may comment on that.

Going to Edit>Preferences>General, unchecking Show Messages and then restarting photoshop cc 2017.1.1 works on
windows 10 x64 to stop the Adobe Spaces helper.exe like in the original posters screenshots.
What version of photoshop and operating system are you using?

So when you uncheck Show Messages and restart photoshop, the 3 Adobe Spaces Helper.exe processes are still running?
When you restart photoshop is Show Messages still unchecked?

What messages are shown when you check "show messages". If it's unchecked will one miss a personal message?

Photoshop CC 2017 Windows 7, Show messages is unchecked and greyed out, this is the default setting and currently cannot be changed, and has never been changed to my knowledge, but multiple Adobe Spaces Helper.exe processes are visible in the task manager. Is it possible there is another use for these processes?

I am also on Windows 7 and this process was hanging my launch of Photoshop. I ended up renaming Adobe Spaces Helper.exe to another filename so it wasn't called on. Now my Photoshop starts up fine. Obviously not an ideal fix, but worked for me in a pinch.

I had this fixed in CC/PS 2017 by disabling the messages. Worked perfect until the new update CC 2018.
I decided to try the fix that was old in this thread C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2018\Required\Plug-ins\Spaces
I renamed the files and it's not loading and taking up CPU space

Arm yourselves with these two little apps:
Process Blocker:
https://www.processblocker.com/
Autoruns:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns
These two tools eliminate all of Adobes uninvited process intrusions, you can prevent most from running with Autoruns, and block any you can't with Process Blocker.

It's back with CC 2018, and there's no option to uncheck "Show Messages". Any other suggestions to remedy this? Thanks...

If you could not find the "Show Messages", I may have found it in CC 2019 under Preferences>Tools> uncheck Show Rich Tooltips. Goodluck!
Edit: I found that this still causes it to open. Next I disallowed it at the Regedit level and it still opened. Alas, I located the .exe file here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2020\Required\Plug-ins\Spaces\Adobe Spaces Helper.exe
then I simply cut and pasted it to a backup folder located somewhere else. It is no longer running constantly. I hope it helps.
