Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I went to control panel and Uninstalled NVIDIA GeForce Experience.

In that case, you probably had shadowplay recording anything fullscreen in the background in case you wanted an instant replay. If you feel like you need GFE, you can probably reinstall it and just disable the always-on-in-the-background mode for shadowplay.

But I always use windowed mode on stuff to access menus and search for new cheats with the memory debugger and breakpoints,and I usually never do full screen.
The only thing that comes close to being full screen for me is border-less windowed mode (due to hearing it reduced lag problems and performance bugs) when I played Yooka-Laylee which I got as a gift a long while back.

Guess I will try completely uninstalling GeForce Experience then to see if frame rates no longer chop up.

I can't remember what the trigger is by default. It might be anything that uses a Direct3D or OpenGL or Vulkan context, not fullscreen things.

Well f*** me! Its missing from my Control Panel like it was for many others.

How do i go about removing it where it also lacks an uninstaller executable?
The worst part is that I can't even change settings without internet because of the hot garbage of requiring an account login which would auto-update my driver to a potentially horrendously-broken version compared to my current stable drivers.
My only ideas are to delete the experience folders and delete specific unmentioned parts containing the experience install and shadowplay within registry.
Sad thing is that my system never allowed me to access shadowplay properly despite having decent enough specs to kinda use it though it might still mess with background usage with no simple way to disable it if still doing something it shouldn't do.

You know you can turn off auto updates right? It also doesn't install the drivers immediately, it will ask you to do so unless you have set it up yourself to automatically install all Driver updates. GeForce Experience will autoupdate, but that should never interfere with the games you are trying to run. And then on top of that you get the "normal" installer in which you can choose what to do or what to install. Another thing: What horrendously broken drivers are you talking about? Since it's inception I have never experienced any bug or issue with any of my driver updates (I have been using nVidia since the GeForce 2MX 32MB, before that I had a S3ViRGE 4MB+Voodoo2 12MBx2 SLI)

NVidia are popular for giving the impression of good support by releasing frequent driver updates, but a lot of them are hotfixes for regressions caused by a previous driver update. Most of the issues are incredibly minor and don't show up for most people, but sometimes they're either severe or common or both. For example, there was a driver which stopped me from exiting any fullscreen OpenGL application running at the same resolution as my monitor and until they hotfixed that, I had to keep powering off my computer by holding the switch in for five seconds. There have also been three occasions where a driver update from NVidia has outright killed GPUs, for example by disabling the fans for a certain series of cards at the same time as disabling thermal cutouts for the same cards.

Alright I know for a FACT what was causing the problem. It is that both my monitors were running on GPU so I tried switching my second monitor to my motherboard it now works perfectly. I can have a video or google chrome tab open and never lag!
