Hello,
  1. The disabled extension the OS is referring to is a legacy part and it is normal to see that. It does not affect how the current driver like yours version 1.8 is working.
    If you are able to open the driver, run it and interact with the GUI then you are good to go.
  2. If the DisplayLink part is only in form of DisplayLink Manager being installed then no.
  3. It does not seem like the HP 24m G4 are using DisplayLink technology.

And now into a little bit more detail.

DisplayLink Manager is not a regular app that will connect to any docking station, monitor or video adapter. It is a driver that needs a device to go with it - meaning, it needs a device with DisplayLink chip built into it.

The monitors you are using do not have our chip built into them so those monitors on their own would not be able to communicate with the driver.

Also please keep in mind that monitors that do not have DisplayLink chip built into them and have only USB-C connection available will also not communicate with DisplayLink driver. Our driver is able to communicate with DisplayLink powered monitors or regular monitors connected via DisplayLink powered device (such as docking stations or video adapters) and DisplayPort, HDMI, VGA or DVI.

You can daisy-chain DisplayLink powered products.
