What is the program called c:\Windows\System32\GWX\GWX.exe?

Is it malicious code such as virus, adware,  spyware, melware, phishing, and ransomware?

How do I erase it?

It's not a virus.
It's an advertising program to get Windows 10.
If you want to erase it, you can erase KB 3035583 during window update.
