I wanted to remove Geforce Experience and the Nvidia control panel because I thought that it would fix an issue with my computer where it would 70% of the time freeze after a few minutes of using it after a reboot.
Also you probably should know that I recently switched from a laptop using an AMD Ryzen 7 3700U With Radeon Vega Mobile CPU to a PC with an Intel i7-8700K CPU and Geforce RTX 3700 GPU.
Uninstallation process
Anyways I deleted Geforce Experience and the Nvidia control panel using BCUninstaller. I would delete the Nvidia drivers and all of the services that started with the name "Nvidia" or "nv" and were signed by Nvidia Corporation. I also looked for Nvidia folders and files in my whole C: drive and removed as many of them as I could, and some of the files I couldn't delete, so I had to use a "Force delete" ability in a program called "Ultra Virus Killer" to remove them.
After a while, I successfully removed Nvidia, and after rebooting there were no autostarting Nvidia processes or services running. There might have been some leftover files and registry entries though.
After the uninstall
I uninstalled the Nvidia control panel and Geforce experience and removed registry entries and drivers and services to ensure I didn't have any Nvidia software on my PC.
All of this did not fix my issue so I decided to reinstall the Nvidia components. I still need help with the PC freezing issue, I have no clue how to fix it because I haven't been able to analyze what could be causing the issue. So please just give me some advice.
Reninstalling Nvidia software
So now I realize that the Nvidia programs and drivers were not the cause of the PC freezing issue. (I'm not 100% sure).
So I decided to install Geforce Experience back from this website using the "Download now" button.
After the installation, I restarted my PC and now I have Geforce experience succesfully installed on my PC and got all of the drivers back without errors.
But every time I restart my PC, I get a message that "Nvidia control panel is not found"
So I did some research and found out that I have to install the Nvidia control panel from the Microsoft store.
After first removing the Nvidia control panel from the Settings app (Because it was there for some reason) And then rebooting and installing it back from the Microsoft store I don't get the message saying "Nvidia control panel is not found" anymore.
So now it seems that the Nvidia control panel is installed since it shows that it is installed in the Microsoft store, and I see the Nvidia control panel in my start menu.
But when I try to open the Nvidia control panel itself, I get an error saying that C:\ProgramFiles\WindowsApps\NVlDlACorp.NVlDlAControlPanel_8.1.964.O_x64_56jybvy8sckcu\nvcplui.exe Was not found.
I think that I removed this exact file when I was previously uninstalling Geforce Experience.
And somehow the nvcplui.exe file did not get regenerated when I reinstalled the Nvidia control panel from the Microsoft store or in the Geforce Experience installation process.
I went to the C:\Program Files\WindowsApps directory and actually found a folder named NVIDIACorp.NVIDIAControlPanel_8.1.964.0_x64__56jybvy8sckqj but inside it, there was no nvcplui.exe file. I only found these files that you can see in the screenshot.
Can someone tell me how to get nvcplui.exe file back or explain now to get a copy of it?
I searched my whole drive for nvcplui.exe and found nothing. (Because I deleted it while uninstalling Nvidia components before).
And the "Control Panel Client" folder is missing in C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\.
