Is host process for setting synchronization necessary when using only a laptop device

[PhilipMoore1953]

Hi,
My Task manager shows a high CPU usage coming from the host process for setting synchronization process.
I'm not interested in synchronizing my devices and would like to have this process stopped.

Not much online that lists specifics on this subject?
Is this an optional setting or is it necessary?

Thanks!
