The NVIDIA Control Panel is no longer appearing in my computer’s control panel or when I right-click on the desktop.
The NVIDIA control panel has vanished from my system, and I’m at a loss for how to restore it. I've explored numerous online resources, encompassing searches within the control panel itself, reinstalling graphics drivers using DDU after a complete uninstall, testing both DCH and standard driver versions, running a system check, and other troubleshooting steps.
Could anyone suggest any potential fixes?

Operating System: Windows 10 Home (64-bit)
(I have no malware detected.)
You likely have the DCH drivers implemented, and you’ll need to install the Nvidia control panel via the Windows Store.
Currently, I’m installing the DCH drivers because attempting to use regular drivers resulted in an error message indicating incompatibility with my operating system version. Thank you for the helpful suggestion! I configured new applications to be installed on a different drive, but this led to a download error and a temporary pause. I was unaware that the control panel would be downloaded through the Windows Store, rather than alongside the drivers. Now, the control panel is displaying as expected.
