How to fix shadowplay not working or an alternate light gaming video recorder?

[B.]

I enjoy being able to save the last min of something in a game if I want to, but geforce experience does not let me use shadowplay (as the 'share' button does absolutely nothing when I click it) no matter how many uninstalls or clean driver reinstalls etc I do can someone help? I would prefer whichever makes the smallest effect to fps.

Is the overlay enabled in the settings? It seems to be disabled by default.

Is it saving the video files correctly but just not sharing them?

Are you turning in on and off manually or using the quick save feature that saves the last so many minutes of gameplay?

Does the shadow play recording icon appear on the screen?

It is doing nothing because the share button does not even work it says ''preparing to share your gameplay'' and then nothing at all happens...

I want to use the quick save function but again, nothing is working.

No the icon does not appear because nothing
is working.

I just tried the tips on this video

YouTube™ Video: *FIX* Nvidia Geforce Experience Unable To Open Share

The other fix for the issue is to completely remove geforce experience and uninstall it and reinstall it and that should fix your issue with it not working.

and in fact the program just refused to open, I then changed the permission of NVIDIA Share to NOT run as administrator and attempted to use plays.tv to record some footage and now the share button IS working..... I have absolutely no idea why.....

I then restart my PC and it is back to not working... Just why?

Doesn't seem to be a steam problem so I'd post on the Nvidia forums as they would most likely be of more help.
