    NVIDIA Control Panel (profile settings) have changed after updating Windows 10


    During the update, Windows-10 changes the “Nvidia profile” resetting it to “Base”.



    Unfortunately high level CADCAM applications, including ours, “don’t like” to work with Base-profile.

    i.e. we have our own Nvidia-profile. Catia has its own profile, NX has its profile and so on.



    The “base” profile causes random crashes to our customers and to our own workstations.



    It causes a considerable loss of time/money to us.

    We might be forced to move to another operating system or to go back to Windows 7 and to suggest it to our customers.



    I am wondering why Microsoft does that.

    Hints?

    How to avoid that a Windows update interferes with Nvidia profile?

    :)

    where is NVIDIA control panel in windows 10?

    I cannot seem to get the nvidia control panel (system tray)
    I tried everything I could think of:

    - Nvidia driver uninstall + device uninstall + change device auto install drivers in hardware settings + clean install... no joy...
    - Windows automatically installs some nvidia drivers, no matter what I try and I can't see or find the control panel.

    Any suggestions?

    where is NVIDIA control panel in windows 10?

    Nvidia Control Panel is accesible via right click on the desktop

    Install the latest Nvidia driver "on top" of the Windows 10 driver, updating it.

    Nvidia Control Panel - Disappeared after Windows 10 Version 1703 update

    Thanks for the information. The problem was that it also was not listed on Control Panel - All Control Panel Items after the update. It was the second place I looked when I could not find it on the desktop. I did a complete search for the Nvidia Control,
    Nvidia Control Panel and Nvidia on the C and D drives, and the Nvidia Control Panel was no where to be found. I was able to locate the Nvidia GForce Experience app (listed on the apps menu and via a search and it function fine) and able to locate the Nvidia
    Driver using Device Manager, but I was unable to locate the Nvidia Control Panel. The Nvidia Icon, which is also set using the Nvidia Control Panel, that appears at the bottom right of the screen was also missing. All is now good after talking with Nvidia
    Support and following their instructions.
