"We have been installing NVIDIA drivers WRONG!" - Chris Titus Tech / [Free up System process and services] [YOUTUBE]

Yr old video but also I didn't know it was sending so much telemetry to Nvidia constantly. Not a fan of that. Might try this out
 
I don't install geforce experience and I have 5 nvidia processes without modifying anything. Probably just unchecking the geforce experience box gets you 95% of the way to what all that hassle got to.
 
The thread made me look my drivers. Nvidia 1060 6gb driver 516.94! They are up to 528.24 I would like to know how many I skipped?

That's actually why I like the GeForce Experience App, it keeps drivers up to date for you with notifications. Also it's how I got my 4090 at launch thanks to their sorta loyality program.

It's actually wise to not just blindly update your drivers for a few days to make sure the new ones don't have any issues.
 
Never even installed geforce experience on my pc.

I just do some cleaning with ddu and then install the new one.
 
I installed it once to check out the recording features, but the resulting video was stuttery... rivatuner and bandicam did it better.
 
Nothing wrong with GeForce Experience. I use it to clip, record and see performance metrics all the time. Also nothing wrong with updating drivers through it. Pretty sure Nvidia knows how to deliver driver updates.

I checked TCPView anyway and don't have nearly as many Nvidia related items there as in the video. The few Nvidia processes running on my PC use pretty much no resources. It's a non-issue.
