One of those nights, any help?

[SvennoJ]

I tried launch a game a few hours ago. It won't launch. I tried different settings, checked whether my laptop was using the GTX 1060 for the app, no go.

So on to update drivers.

Installing new Nvidea drivers installed this horrible GeForce experience thing which only found 2 games on my system. I couldn't find anywhere where to select which GPU to use for which game, after it pestered me to make yet another account. Meanwhile the Nvidea control panel had gone missing.

I uninstalled the GeForce Experience again, seemed useless.
I tried to reinstall NVidea control panel from the MS store, that simply gives an error, won't download.
I tried restarting the NVidea display container service, no go.
I tried reinstalling the driver for the GTX 1060, no go.
(There is a nvidea control panel icon in the quick launch bar but it doesn't work, dead, the one in the right click on desktop menu is missing, only integrated GPU settings there)
I uninstalled and deleted the GTX 1060 driver and let windows find it again.
Windows downloaded it and now wants me to restart.

Any suggestions what I did wrong, or how to get out of this mess.
