Ninja.exe is an executable file associated with the software Ninja Pendisk, developed by Nuno Brito. This software is designed to protect your computer from potential threats that may be present on pendrives (also known as USB flash drives or thumb drives).
Ninja Pendisk works by automatically scanning and removing suspicious files from your pendrive as soon as it's connected to your computer. This helps to prevent the spread of viruses, malware, and other harmful files that could potentially damage your system or compromise your data.
The Ninja.exe file is essential for the operation of Ninja Pendisk. It's the main executable that runs the software, enabling it to perform its protective functions. Without this file, Ninja Pendisk wouldn't be able to operate and your computer would be more vulnerable to threats from infected pendrives.
There's no need to remove Ninja.exe if you're using Ninja Pendisk and it's functioning correctly. If you're experiencing issues with the software, or if you've found a file named Ninja.exe that's not located in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Ninja directory (the default installation location for Ninja Pendisk), it could be a disguised piece of malware. In such cases, it would be advisable to remove it and perform a full system scan with a reliable antivirus software.
While not directly related to Ninja.exe or Ninja Pendisk, SoftPhone is another piece of software developed by Global IP Telecommunications. It's a Voice over IP (VoIP) application that allows users to make phone calls over the internet. It's not connected to the functionality or operation of Ninja.exe.
The process known as Keep your computer safe from infected pendisks or SoftPhone belongs to software Ninja Pendisk or SoftPhone by Nuno Brito (nunobrito1981.blogspot.com) or Global IP Telecommunications (www.globaliptel.com).

A clean and tidy computer is the key requirement for avoiding problems with Ninja.

Always remember to perform periodic backups, or at least to set restore points.
Should you experience an actual problem, try to recall the last thing you did, or the last thing you installed before the problem appeared for the first time. Use the 6resmon command to identify the processes that are causing your problem. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off repairing of your installation or, for Windows 8 and later versions, executing the 7DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command.
