I read online that you could delete the nvidia folder in C:\nvidia so I tried it. I didn't think much of it so I emptied my recycling bin but soon after I noticed some youtube videos were not working as well as facebook videos. Once I entered a league of legends game is where I realised I messed up. The game itself went bugsplat and would not load!! If anyone knows how to fix this please reply. Any answers to this would be greatly appreciated.

Ummmm...

You can try downloading the GeForce Experience from nvidia @ http://www.geforce.com/geforce-experience

Also, maybe pop in the Driver CD for your graphics card (if you have one).

It is typically a VERY bad idea to delete anything from C:\, but if you try it with anything else I strongly recommend saving a copy to a disk/flash drive before doing so

thank you for replying. I already have geforce experience but I will try the CD idea and will tell you if it works or not.

Just go to Nvidia's site, use their driver finder to identify your hardware and OS, and DL and re-install the driver. Pretty simple really.

It's okay I found out that a program I have, reginout system utilities, was actually able to fix this! This program is great and had fixed a lot of my computer errors but thank you for replying

The C:\NVIDIA folder is harmless.
It just contains the extracted copy of the driver files; not the actual driver.
It doesn't occupy much space though, so if you're having issues, better to leave it on.
