My Nvidia Control Panel is stuck and I can't get it to start up.
My Nvidia Control Panel is stuck and I can't get it to start up.
So here is what happened to me. I took out my old GTX 1070 driver and tried a new Vulkan Beta version instead. Right after that, the Nvidia Control Panel app crashed and wouldn't even open up. I spent three days looking everywhere on the internet for help, checking all these options: trying DDU, upgrading my Windows OS in place, restarting the Nvidia Display Container service to make it automatic or manual, reinstalling the drivers both with and without safe mode enabled, and using system restore points that kept getting deleted after failing. At this point I am totally lost. The only way out seems like wiping my entire operating system off completely. It's not a hardware problem because the program ran fine on the test installation of Windows I did before, so it must be something wrong with my OS. Does anyone know why a program suddenly won't open? My best guess is that whenever I restart the Display Container service, my right-click menu stays stuck for a few seconds, and the Control Panel app does finally pop up but just asks me to agree to their terms before closing. I have no idea what to do from there because there are so many system files involved in this mess.
It's possible I might need to do that. Check out this link: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-use-s...windows-10 Then ask yourself: what happens if you make a new user account, will they get the Nvidia chip?
