I found a "exe" files as nsd9305.tmp.exe, nsq33CE.tmp.exe, on temp. In description specified as "HP Display Control Install Utility"

 

Are they trojans or files uses by HP?

Hello @ Ahmetoz.

 

You are not alone.
I have the same situation.
See the discussion on the subject in this thread:

Hello everybody and @Ahmetoz

 

That file keeps popping up whenever a driver update comes out like it happened to me today

I don't think we'll ever get rid of the file HPDCSetup.exe file (Installer for HP Display Control Service).
Even today, Windows Update updated the driver "HP Inc. - SoftwareComponent - 1.55.3353.0", creating a new folder at C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\hpcustomcapcompcomp.inf_amd64_3fe14bedeb9ca7a2\x64 with the date of creation of this update, where this file every time the computer starts up it creates that temporary file again.
Why does HP send Microsoft that file for those who don't have displays compatible with that program?
