    I don't want this software to notify me about new updated bugged drivers of Nvidia because I prefer to just wait a week now and check how those new drivers go. Therefore after I installed GeForce Experience I disabled updates checks however before doing so that program did check that and found one. So I got a fat yellow !exclamation mark! on the icon in the Task Panel.

    Actually, any normal software should disable that notifications as soon as user disabled the cause - updates checking. But obviously this doesn't belong to Nvidia. So here are my steps.

    1. Uncheck all boxes for autoupdates which you probably already did.
    2. Go to DRIVERS Menu and click button "Check for updates" which will find nothing (because you told it to find nothing) and that exclamation mark will be gone.

    Best solution: Uninstall GeForce Experience, don't use it in the first place. ;)

    Unless you want to use ShadowPlay (which is finally working, sort of, for mobile GPU's).

    MSI Afterburner w/NVENC works better than ShadowPlay, so all the more reason not to install that bloated piece of trash named GFE.

    Will it allow you to capture the last X minutes with a key combo? That's my biggest draw.
