@Tom: Would it be a solution to use one of those DLL files?
If yes, then please show in the list of applications the EXE of GeForce Experience and the icon from the EXE
(C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GeForce Experience\NVIDIA GeForce Experience.exe)
and show the version number extracted from the DLL file.
Note that the two DLLs have different file-names in 32-Bit and 64-Bit.

Tom

Proper support for using registry information in the Rules is Work-In-Progress and you should start seeing the first improvements soon. GeForce Experience is not a high priority though and will not be among the first Rules to get updated. But it will happen, if the information you provided in your postings is correct.

OLLI_S

@Tom I do not agree!
Two totally crazy Germans (@Anselm and me) have this app, so it is high priority!
;-)

Tom

@olli_s :D

OLLI_S

@Anselm See how this works?
You just need good arguments here!

Anselm

@olli_s @Tom I see you both have fun :joy: All my requests are low priority. Nevertheless i believe GeForce Experience may often be used by gamers.

OLLI_S

Not only by gamers, also by office-users that want to keep the Video-drivers up-to-date.
My brother is a PC noob and has on his office PC NVIDIA GeForce Experience installed

Anselm

@olli_s Do he needs it for driver updates? In the last time i think it is provided inside windows update.

OLLI_S

Just for driver updates, but he is fine with it (he does not want to change his behavior).

Tom

I also responded in another thread. But, just as suggested / discussed here, I now have access to the information from the registry.

So once you have done some inspections I will add new Specific Rules. If these aren't accurate, then we will either attempt some new registry tricks or start using the dll files as suggested.

OLLI_S

Now NVIDIA GeForce Experience is detected and also the correct version number 3.16.0.122.
So for me this is fine.

@Anselm is NVIDIA GeForce Experience also detected correctly on your system?

Anselm

It is detected as: 3.13.1.30
This is ok.

It is detected three times:

c:\Users\All Users\NVIDIA Corporation\Downloader\latest\nodejs\nvnodejslauncher.exe
c:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\Downloader\latest\nodejs\nvnodejslauncher.exe
c:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NvNode\nvnodejslauncher.exe

OLLI_S

@Anselm perfect, on my system it is also detected 3 times.
So the issue is solved.
