It also seems that no programs have been affected by it so far by disabling that. Right now it is only disabled in mscofig as I am unable to find any way to uninstall it because it is not listed in 'Programs and Features'. I was wondering if there are programs out there that use the Codemeeter Runtime without needing a CM key.

Very few people have even directly seen this pc. In your Control Panel > uninstall Programs > it is listed as either Codemeter Runtime Kit or Wibu-Sysems. If that fails due to missing dependencies, you can instead attempt. On Debian, using dpkg and apt-get, you can install the CodeMeter Runtime with. If you do not use any such software, you can safely delete it. On Red Hat, using yum, you can install the CodeMeter Runtime with.

Or if you have installed 'demo' versions of such programs to check out its suitability, Codemeter will still be installed as part of the installation. Perhaps, in the past, someone borrowed your pc and installed a software that requires USB dongle keys. I use Dataton Watchout, and Codemeter looks for my Watchout USB key when I want to access Display computers running the fullscreen Display version of Watchout (for fullscreen multidisplay presentations like dome projections, panoramic presentations, etc). Open CodeMeter Control Center to check whether the Stop Service button is displayed. You are correct that it is a software licence that looks for a USB key in order to run a program. Especially for Linux systems without graphical user interface, it is necessary to configure CodeMeter runtime settings directly in the Server.ini file of CodeMeter.
