Update your post to include full system hardware specs and OS information.

From where and when was Geekbench 5 installed? Did you do install?

How have you been trying to uninstall Geekbench? What has been tried?

You might be able to uninstall Geekbench using Powershell.

FYI:

There are risks involved so if you are not comfortable working with Powershell then do not try to do so.

Or find a knowledgeable family member or friend to help.

However, in any case do be sure that all important data is backed up at least 2 x to other locations of the computer in question. Verify that the backups are recoverable and readable.

All to easy to have things go wrong when trying to clean up some software issue.
