Task menager - GPU problems

[Bilgot the Heartless]

So I just turned on my pc and noticed that in task menager in performance setction there is no GPU. Also on default page in task menager where you can see your processes you can see on top usage of your CPU / RAM and there is GPU but it shows only 0% no matter what. I thought my GPU is dissabled or something like that but no. What is happening? I have windows 10

What build version of Windows 10?

Try this:
Win+R --> Enter cmd and press OK
Enter winver and press Enter/Return on your keyboard.

In the window opening, copy the build version and post it here.

So that means task menager can see your GPU. But it doesn't see mine.

If you open Control Panel and then Device Manager, is the heading "Display Adapters" listed? What is your gpu model and what driver version do you have?

You can search the issue. Here's one example:

There are others from the Microsoft Community and whatnot.

whithout a GPU driver , he will get no video output . but it might be a basic one

I checked that my driver has to be WDDM 2.0 or better to see it in task manager and it is. I have recent driver version. My GPU is GTX 1060 3GB and it happened just suddenly. I didn't do anything yesterday and today just boom. No GPU is task manager. So yeah it's rather not drivers problem.

Shut down the PC , unplug it , wait 10 sec and plug it in again .

Okay. If you open Task Manager to the Processes and RIGHT click somewhere in the small box that says "Network" and a percent in-wuse--I assume that column is visible, right? So right-click there and you should see a list of devices. Is the gpu one checked or unchecked?

Obviously, if un-checked, check it and find out what happens.

So I open task manager and I see columns CPU / RAM / DISK / NETWORK / GPU so yea GPU is checked there but like I said it shows 0% even if i open steam or something. It's not like use task manager first time. And also if i click performance wich is next to proccesses column I see my CPU / RAM / NETWORK but there is no GPU. In performance section you could see your v ram usage your temps but it just dissapeared.

OK, OK. Let's see what else.

The next step I would try is if your gpu can be read by a third party app. Here's a list of some.

https://www.raymond.cc/blog/how-to-replace-windows-task-manager-with-a-better-one/

Is something like HWiNFO64 able to read the gpu temps? If not, the sensor on your gpu could be defective.

I already checked in HWMonitor and yeah there is my GPU and temps are like always during running PC.

I litreally have no idea. If there was windows update It could be becasue of that but there was not. If I was doing something with OS but I didn't do anything. I just turned on today my PC checked task manager and yeah there is no GPU and I don't even know if something because of GPU or windows. Ech....
