Quite a lot of people use it to record gameplay but then you have the minority who moan that they need to do a once in a lifetime sign in

My drivers have took a crap recently. GeForce Experience disappeared randomly and now when trying to install 382.05 I just get this error.
Anyone got any ideas?

Soldato
Got the correct version for your OS, 32/64bit etc?
Soldato
Yeah, Windows 10 64bit.
I think it's sorted now. I had to completely uninstall the old drivers. Bit of a ballache as Windows tries to install drivers when you restart.

No idea, but DDU will probably get rid of it.Anyone have any idea why I can't uninstall my geforce experience it's doing my nut in

I've gone back to 372.90 for my 970.
I can't prove anything but since 372.90 every driver release has felt like a performance step back in comparison.
Maybe I should upgrade, or is that giving NVIDIA what they want?

This did uninstall it thank god think it was causing rainbow six siege to crash as before it was installed it was never happening now I'm just getting random crashes

By the time your reaching for DDU, it's time to reformat.

Yes, same here and it was uninstalled as soon as the game was activated... down side I had to go in and adjust all my game settings after GFE had wrongly adjusted them. Grrrr!!! what a pain in the rear.
Soldato
Reformat my full ssd ? How will that work with having windows installed ?
Also why would I need to do this if I needed ddu to uninstall GeForce experience ?
That is a little extreme is it not?
Soldato
I don't think so. Turning to 3rd party solution to clean up an already messy situation usually just causes more mess.
In my experience, just reformat and get back to a nice clean state of affairs.
Soldato
Dunno. But I am just envisioning registry corruption, orphaned files etc etc etc... Problems installing Geforce experience in the future...
The point is, if the Nvdia uninstaller isn't able to uninstall GFE it's self, turning to a 3rd party solution to do it is just going to compound the mess.

I use DDU every time I install a new driver and I've never had an issue with it, going back years now. Unless your Windows install is inherently broken somehow, there's no reason why there should be any future problems after using it. The entire point of the program is that it cleans out everything driver-related so you can start fresh, free from any potential conflicts or issues caused by cruft from old installations.
