    Unable to check for updates in Windows Store


    ManuelG has just confirmed on the Guru3D.com forum, another site I regularly post on, that NVIDIA have NOT been able to reproduce the issues but that they will keep trying until they do. Not very encouraging but I intend starting a thread over the weekend specifically for people with these issues so that we can share hardware and software details to try and find some commonality that we all share. I only hope it isn't just that we're using NVIDIA cards and drivers!!!

  2. Very interested to follow this then, I don't go on those forums much but will try and take an active interest now. I guess this has made me even more determined to stick with the 355 driver branch my current desktop is on as I have no issues. I have the 980 ti and it works well on everything I've tried although I don't have many latest and greatest games - I guess being on older drivers might cost me a few fps here and there but it sounds like it's not worth the risk.

    i suppose the other main difference between the desktop and laptop (apart from different driver branches) is the desktop does not have GeForce experience installed whilst the problematic laptop did. The desktop didn't have it pre installed by the manufacturer, just the driver set and I couldn't see value in it really. I wonder if this is screwing things up and whether the OP has this installed also.

  3. Hey guys! Thanks for all of the help. I had to do a In Place Upgrade to fix it and it is now fixed. Also, the Facebook app is now fixed on my computer after doing an In Place Upgrade on it as well. This all occurred after the latest Facebook app update from the Windows Store on my computer and it all took place on my sister's computer after the recent system updates from June. I am thinking there were some bugs in those updates. I hope this helps someone who may run into this problem later on.
