Hi Kenneth
Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Start Menu)
Go to Privacy - Background Apps
From there you should be able to stop the Your Phone App and other Apps form running in the background of Windows 10

I have noticed that … Yourphone.exe … is running all the time.
Can this app be stopped from starting and if so … How do you stop it? ...
Thanks for any help ...

Alternatively, you can try to remove the entire your phone app using powershell command. In an elevated Windows PowerShell, enter the following:
Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.YourPhone -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage
