As title.
I noticed that GeForce Experience does not boot anymore on my Windows 10 system.

I don't get alerts about new release of GFExperience or new drivers.
How can I fix this?

Thanks

    Praise that it doesn't lol. Have you tried reinstalling it?

    If you download and install the latest drivers. Do custom install and choose to "perform a clean install". After restart, the Geforce Experience should work.

    Something went funky with mine recently when I updated precision without closing out of apps. Save your self the headache and do this cause it tends to be the fix for most of GFE's issues if the standard reinstall doesn't work.
     
    Download the latest Drivers https://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/123936 (assuming your win 10 64bit)
     
    Download the latest GFE https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/geforce-experience/ 
     
    Download DDU https://www.wagnardsoft.com/content/display-driver-uninstaller-ddu-v17075-released 
     
    Use DDU to prevent windows auto driver download boot into safe mode and let DDU clear out all Drivers and GFE cache. Once It's done install the latest drivers don't check GFE if it's an option you will install that via the standalone install after your drivers are installed. Hopefully, this resolved your problem.

    Are you sure you're just not confusing the removal of the system tray icon with it not working? They got rid of the tray icon about a month ago but it still runs in the background and alerts about driver updates.

    Q: Is GeForce Experience considered malware?
    A: According to the antivirus software we tested the file with, GeForce Experience does not contain any malware, spyware, trojans or viruses and appears to be safe. It is important to note that these virus and malware test results only apply to this version of the program.
    GeForce Experience has tested clean of viruses and malware.
    We last tested the this file on Sep 24, 2017 with 24 different anti-virus and anti-malware programs and services. Out of these tests, the GeForce Experience download tested clean 100% of the time.

    Yup. That threw me for a loop as well, but I noticed the UI kept coming up when gaming. I wish they'd kept the tray icon because I find that easier to use than setting up a shortcut on the desktop.

    Yeah, I also would like it very much if they would re-enable the system tray icon.
    Edit: I pinned it to Start but miss seeing it in the system tray.

    Im sorry Eye, I didn't mean that it was truly malware, although Im not a fan of the telemetry it provides, but what I meant as malware was that the gaming community in general considers it a crappy app that will conflict with game settings and crash your rig more than it could ever help your rig, plus it seems to conflict with some drivers. Sorry if that confused you.

    without tray icon, it doesn't alert for updates. this is pretty annoying.
    in any case I never experienced problems with GFExperience so I like it.
    I even like the instant replay feature it have, great video quality using low resources...

    All in all, I like that software.

    GFE crashes everytime I launch it on my laptop.  It is abysmal at the driver updates also.   I am better off doing a clean driver install manually.
