You can download the driver directly, GeForce Experience isnt necessary.
I've done that before, yes, but I seem to recall it being a lot of hoops to go through. Could be misremembering it, as well though.
Well you have to know the model of your graphics card and your operating system. If you don't know those things, you will have to either figure it out or download the app so it can detect that information automatically.
Yeah, that's pretty basic. I seem to recall the option to even search by OS/GPU being fairly hidden, but again, probably just misremembering.
It's the massive list of GPUs and all their variants that probably made it such a memorably bad experience.
You know, this may be it hah.
As someone that works in tech and is in no way averse to updating my own drivers: this is why I just used the stupid app out of frustration. Even knowing my exact GPU it was still a hassle.
Okay thank God I'm not insane hahah. I'm over here like, man I'm in tech support, surely I'm just not that bad with Nvidia drivers 😂😂
It's a phenomenon I seem to encounter more and more where previously inconsequential and simple to accomplish tasks have been obfuscated and enshittified just enough that its "easier" to do the shitty longer way they want to force you to use.
