Some time ago, my daughter installed a game on my computer: The Sims.
Recently, I updated the driver for my computer, which is based on an AMD CPU. I believe AMD's graphics drivers are managed by a program named Raptr.
I am now going through the Windows Task Manager and looking at all the processes running, wondering which ones I can stop, or uninstall completely. The following jump out at me:
I am pretty sure Origin is part of "The Sims."
I don't know if I need the rest.
However, I am concerned that getting rid of some of these processes might adversely affect Netflix; I don't want to shoot myself in the foot.
Anybody here know if any of these processes are important for viewing Netflix content, either to improve the graphics quality or the efficiency of delivery?
Can any of these programs be safely eliminated?
Or should I just leave them alone?
Comments/suggestions/advice welcome.

Code:
Origin.exe *32 Origin
plays_ep64.exe Elevation Proxy
playstv.exe *32 Plays.tv Video Recorder by Raptr
raptr.exe *32 Raptr Destop App
raptr_ep64.exe Elevation Proxy
raptr_im.exe *32 Raptr Desktop App
