How do I remove knox and all of the other useless/unwanted apps that came with my device and not only bloat my storage but also drain my battery in the background despite being disabled?
Also, I am completely unable to disable knox and some other bloatware.
I just want to know how to safely remove it so I can actually get what I paid for out of my device.

There is really no official way to remove knox. That is a built in application. If you don't want the bloatware you can disable the app instead and it is almost the same as getting rid of it. Tap on apps->settings->apps->scroll to app you want to disable ->tap on the app->tap disable (if it allows you to disable)->tap disable again and then at the replace with factory version pop up screen, tap ok. Disabling will remove the app icon from the screen where all your apps are. I got rid of bloatware on my phone. Not only did it make the phone faster it freed up more storage space.

Only way to remove all the useless/unwanted apps 100% from your phone is to root it, which I am not a fan of doing. But there are some other 3rd party apps that say they can remove them.
However I do not trust them.
