Shadowplay not working at all [SOLVED+SOLUTION that may help others]

[WereCat]

EDIT:

SOLVED THROUGH NVIDIA SUPPORT

 

If you have N version of Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 you lack package that is required to make shadowplay work, so in order to get it work you have to download this

http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3386

after you download it, install it, reset your PC, reinstall GForce Experience and then you should have it working. It solved problem for me.

 

 Windows 10

Hi, I had shadowplay working fine on Windows 7 Ultimate x64 but I switched to Windows 8.1 Enterprise N x64 and now my shadowplay is not working at all. The indicator when I start recording got red line over it. I have GTX 770 and yes I am playing in full screen mode. I tried several solutions I googled but nothing worked. I reinstalled GForce Experience but it did not helped, I alt+tab into desktop turned SP off then on again and it did not helped, I played with settings and changed locations for files to save but no result also. Streaming on TwitchTV is also not working. I tried also several games like League of Legends, CS:GO, Arma 2 & 3, Black Mesa but nothing works. Not sure how to fix it.

Hey there,

 

Try using the minimum setting on the shadowplay record (I think its 1 minute now), then play the game for that duration and I think the indicator will have the red line removed from it. I get the red line until I play the 3 mins or so for the shadowplay to record. Also, try changing the record keys to a direct F10 or F11 etc.

Hope this works.

It worked, it removed red line but no recordings are saved now at all. And yes, the folders where it is saving to have no special symbols. I also updated to new GFE 2.0 and new beta driver and it did not helped. If I try to stream on twitch I get message on twitter that I am onine but when I go on twitch.tv it still says offlin. I sended message on NVidia support forum but looks like they dont know either because noone replied as of yet.

I even made clean install of everything that has do do something witch NVidia which took a lot of time because I had to dig leftover files after I uninstalled every driver and piece of software from them. No result.

 

Automatic recording - it makes files that are unreadable, manual recording - it makes no files at all it only creates folder with name of the game I started recording.

I installed this http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40744then rebooted PC and uninstalled GForce Experience and all NVIDIA drivers, then rebooted PC again and then installed GF Experience with drivers again.

Hope it will help you.

 

EDIT:

Also if it wont work I recommend you to contact NVIDIA support. They suggested tis to me back then when it didnt worked for me.
