Real impact of disabling these two programs on startup...

Hello,
(regarding my tower)

To speed up Windows 8.1 at startup, in the "Task Manager" under the "Startup" tab, I disabled all the programs listed as having no impact on startup or "none" in the "Startup impact" column.

There are still two programs enabled:
- "Delayed launcher" with a "medium impact",
- "NVIDIA Capture Server Proxy" with a "low impact".

Knowing that there are four levels of impact (high, medium, low, and none), I would like to know if disabling the two programs above might - conversely - (greatly) slow down the startup?
(to understand that I do not want to try because not anticipating is already whining!)

Thank you for your help.
Best regards.

[]Edited] This manipulation is interesting at startup but would also apply during the use of "resource-intensive" programs. Is it possible to disable these unused programs (therefore idling) while needing more resources for another program being used... just to gain a bit?!

Asus Desktop Tower Intel Core i3-4150 CPU 3.50GHz, 4.00 GB RAM, 64-bit system with W8.1, WDefender, Firefox, Ccleaner, Malwarebytes; occasionally ADWCleaner.
>>> Laptop:
Acer, 17" i3-4005U CPU 1.70GHz, 4.00 GB RAM, OS W8.1 64 bits, WDefender, Firefox, Ccleaner, Malwarebytes; occasionally ADWCleaner.

    No problems are expected when disabling these softwares. You could disable them without any issues in my opinion.

      Hello Alexandre,

      You're right! (we're on a first-name basis online!). I disabled both and it didn't change anything. Thank you.

      Looking forward to hearing from you.
