• hpwuschd application
• HP Digital Imaging

Do I need these programs on start-up? I have no idea what it is.. thanks in advance.

Both of these programs belong to Hewlitt Packard (HP). The first is an update scheduler and the second is a software program usually installed as part of an HP printer. So I'm guessing (since you don't show any system specs) that you have an HP computer and/or an HP printer.

Neither of these programs are needed at startup. From a previous Forum thread, one of the Forum experts suggests:

Here's the detail on the first one. Up to you whether you want to run it at startup.
HPWuSchd.exe Windows process - What is it?

And here's the detail for the second one:
disable the startup loading of my digital imaging monitor - HP Support Forum - 1051137
again your choice to run it at start up or not. Neither are system files so you can disable them if you wish.
PS I found these answers very quickly by just using Google!!!
