I never had the problem(or any other for that matter), and I'm using the Experimental Features beta version of GFX:)

Can someone here explain what advantages if any are gained by using GeForce Experience. I tried it out some time ago and it was a real resource hog and gave me nothing in return. Since then I've failed to see the reason why anyone uses it.
Enlighten me please :)

I don't game, so turn all those features off, but it does nicely updating the drivers on it's own:)

DooGie; there are a lot of Nvidia users and even gamers who feel the same way. However, what it does and why many gamers use it?

1) individual game graphic optimization based on your specific hardware
2) shadow play recording features

Each game is coded by devs differently. For example, using AA/AF, which is the best for that game and if maybe it's MSAA should it be 2x, 4x, 8x? Shadows, should it be ultra, HFTS or something else? Nvidia knows their hardware and works closely with many game devs. GFE will give you Nvidia's recommended graphic settings, given they know your hardware and the specific game features. You can adjust GFE for performance or quality and GFE recommended settings will change. These settings are good, at least as a base and you can of course change the ones you don't like/want, like for me DSR.

GFE's shadow play is very easy to use and one of the most popular game recording tools out there. Personally I like Windows 10 game recording features which also compress the video file size.

Thanks for the replies Cliff and specialkone. Cliff if you don't game I really don't see why you use it. specialkone, yes there are some good reasons to install it if you game but there's nothing that encorages me to install and I do game.
My installation directory for NVIDIA drivers looks like this.

Everything works fine after installation.

If I want to tweak settings for individual games I use NVInspector.

I used to avoid it as bloatware too, and always set my game settings myself. I use it purely for shadowplay, it does a great job and doesn't use a lot of resources now.
