Nvidia control panel

[skipper]

Why do i keep seeing that nvidia control panel is no longer on main website and that its only on store?.

I format quite often just to keep things clean and fresh. Its fast and easy these days not like it use to be. It takes about 45 mins tops and all my games backed up any way.

Yes windows installs the Control panel from the store but everytime i do it i go to website and download the latest driver and do a clean install off that.

When typing this in google nvidia control panel website or windows store the first thing it says is

Per Microsoft requirements, the NVIDIA Control Panel is no longer included in the driver package and is instead distributed exclusively through the Microsoft Store and seamlessly installed following the completion of the NVIDIA driver installation

That was last updated in 2021

But as said i go to nvidia website https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/

Drivers section and its there to download?. Am i reading this wrong?.

I no it not a biggy but just want to no. hehe.

The control panel is only split up in the version of the driver Windows automatically installs. If you install the driver from the Nvidia website itself it will include the control panel by default.

Just make it easier and get the Geforce Experience program. It'll download any new drivers but you can choose when to install it and if you want to do a fresh install.

The Control panel is also included so you can easily access both.
You don't need to bother with features on Geforce Experience if you don't want to use them as they are all just options.

Why?
Why waste so much time on a format when it will do nothing other than having you to re install all of the programs, bring back the history of your web browser so that you don't need to fill in all of the passwords again.

Those 45 minutes could be spent on better things.
Back in the day it actually was for a reason because the harddrive would make the OS slower and slower the longer you had it. But with SSD you don't ever need to worry about it.

On the website?

Nvidia never had that as a separate download it's included when you install the full driver package from Nvidia website. It's always been that way.

Ignore the Microsoft Store App. You don't use that for such things. It just shows there due to how DCH works
