Can't find anything about it, when I google it. I find stuff about an 'AppleMobileDeviceService', but mine doesn't say that. It just says MobileDeviceService.exe. Found it when I looked in task manager at background processes.

Weirdly enough, I swear it disappeared and now I don't see it.

Does anyone know?

It didn't disappear by itself, check your antivirus or whatever security you have to see the logs, if you are sure that there isn't anything you have uninstalled or that its not some software you have run yourself, consider it might still be running but simply not showing.

If in doubt, act as if compromised.

I'm not 100% sure but I think it's Apple-related even if it's not "AppleMobileDeviceService".

Based off nothing but the name, and if it was legit, it sounds like the kind of thing that would be running if you plugged your phone into your PC. I don't know though.
