Those adapters come with Cyberghost VPN. First you must be sure that you delete Cyberghost completely from your computer, then go to Network and Sharing Center or device manager and disable those adapters. You can easily remove them from device manger and just restart to have it take affect.

Do the following and they will disappear
- Win+R -> Type in "msinfo32" press Enter.
- Now you will see the following Console Window.
- In the left pane navigate to components ->Network -> Adapter
- Here, you can see all the Network Adapters listed
- Find the TAP adapters and see the Driver location as shown in the below image
- I have given a sample image as I have already deleted the TAP adapters. Don't delete the Microsoft Adapters.
- Find the Tap adapters location in listed adapters & go to the location for example:
C:WindowsSystem32DriversTAP.sysand delete them. - Go to to Device Management and uninstall the TAP adapters under Network Adapters.
Note: While uninstalling, tick the option "Delete the Driver" if asked for a prompt.
