1. A display control apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
a memory device storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, configure the processor to:
acquire a use frequency of a user using a user interface (UI) extension component of a graphical user interface (GUI) component constituting a predetermined application and a use frequency of the user using a cooperation component that is a target GUI component for an operation of the UI extension component; and
determine to display the UI extension component in a case where a value obtained by adding a positive function value of the use frequency of the UI extension component and a negative function value of a utilization frequency of the UI extension component is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, wherein the utilization frequency of the UI extension component is calculated based on the use frequency of the cooperation component.
 
6. A display control method executed by a display control apparatus, the method comprising:
acquiring a use frequency of a user using a user interface (UI) extension component of a graphical user interface (GUI) component constituting a predetermined application and a use frequency of the user using a cooperation component that is a target GUI component for an operation of the UI extension component; and
determining to display the UI extension component in a case where a value obtained by adding a positive function value of the use frequency of the UI extension component and a negative function value of a utilization frequency of the UI extension component is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, wherein the utilization frequency of the UI extension component is calculated based on the use frequency of the cooperation component.
 
7. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program, wherein executing of the program causes a computer to perform operations comprising:
acquiring a use frequency of a user using a user interface (UI) extension component of a graphical user interface (GUI) component constituting a predetermined application and a use frequency of the user using a cooperation component that is a target GUI component for an operation of the UI extension component, and
determining to display the UI extension component in a case where a value obtained by adding a positive function value of the use frequency of the UI extension component and a negative function value of a utilization frequency of the UI extension component is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value, wherein the utilization frequency of the UI extension component is calculated based on the use frequency of the cooperation component.
