No Nvidia Control Panel in Windows 10

Yayap7

  I did a clean install of Windows 10 and as far as I can tell, it updated the graphics driver correctly. Nothing went wrong for me with this Windows 10 install and everything's been OK since. I installed GeForce Experience and that is saying the driver is up to date. I don't notice any performance loss or broken games(so far, still downloading and installing the massive amount of PC games I have).

  Problem is, Windows didn't install the Nvidia control Panel so I don't have any fine tuning of my games anymore -like v-sync with triple buffering and max frames and AO, DSR and such..

Should I try to uninstall the current Nvidia driver(353.62)(and maybe Experience) and then re-download it and install it manually? Will that include Control Panel? 
Or will downloading and selecting clean install of the latest driver be fine? 
I'm using a GTX 780.
 
Thanks!

So I'm guessing I should delete Experience and the current driver?  Delete as many Nvidia files and folders I can find or just uninstall/delete Exp.

I just don't want to make duplicates(or other possible buggy things) of any files or folders by leaving everything the way it is and have an unstable graphics system with Win 10.

Just run the installer, it will take care of everything.
