Hello,

I have an ACER Aspire E1-731 laptop running Windows 8.1.
I'm sorting through the programs that launch automatically at startup on my PC, but I'm unsure about the properties and purposes of the following programs:

- ETD Control Center > ELAN Microelectronics Corp.
- Persistence Module > Intel Corporation
- hkcmd Module > Intel Corporation
- igfxTray Module > Intel Corporation

What are they for? Are these programs necessary for the computer to start up?
Also, do I have to leave the HD Realtek audio manager at startup?

Thank you in advance for your responses!

Intel is the processor, so if you remove one of the three, you’re dead, and otherwise, I don’t know what the other one is.
