Default launcher.exe

Today, I got the Virtual Memory too Low error in Windows. I got this error before adding RAM to my PC, so I decided to do some googling and see what the problem is. After a few online guides, I realize launcher.exe is taking up a huge chunk of virtual memory. Some websites say the program is spyware and a security risk. I killed the process, but should I also try to delete the executable?

Okay, well, when I do a search, four different launcher.exe files show up. Should I just delete all four of them or the most recent one?

I don't know what it's for. All I know is that it took up a huge amount of virtual memory while it was running. I'm not a PC gamer (and I couldn't be if I tried) so I doubt I need it to launch anything.
