Hi, Troy

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.



The error message you're encountering suggests that there's an issue with the installation or execution of the Nvidia GeForce Experience setup program. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve this problem:

1. Temporarily disable antivirus/firewall: Your antivirus or firewall software might be blocking the Nvidia GeForce Experience setup program from running properly. Try temporarily disabling your antivirus or firewall software and then attempt to update your Nvidia drivers again. Remember to re-enable your antivirus/firewall afterward.
   
2. Clean installation of Nvidia drivers: If you're unable to update your drivers through Nvidia GeForce Experience, you can try performing a clean installation of the drivers. Here's how:
   
   • Download the latest Nvidia drivers from the Nvidia website.
     
   • Use a tool like Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to completely remove your current Nvidia drivers. DDU ensures that all remnants of the old drivers are removed.
     
   • After running DDU and restarting your computer, install the latest Nvidia drivers that you downloaded earlier.
     
3. Contact Nvidia Support: If the issue persists after trying the above steps, you may want to reach out to Nvidia's customer support for further assistance. They may have specific troubleshooting steps or solutions for this particular error message.
   

If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.
