Description:

- In Device Manager, the NVidia GPU isn't appearing next to Intel.
- In Control Panel, the NVidia Control Panel is showing, thought never opening when I click.
- In Programs and Features, NVIDIA GeForce Experience 1.8.2.1, Graphics Driver 335.23, PhysX System Software 9.13.1220, Virtual Audio 1.2.20 are showing.
- When I try to update the driver from the NVidia site, it tells me that I don't have an NVidia GPU.
- The NVIDIA and NVIDIA Corporation folders seem to be present everywhere it needs (Program Files, Program Files x86, ProgramData, AppData folders etc.)

System:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-3110M CPU @ 2.40Ghz 2.40 GHz
4GB RAM
Windows 10 64-bit

It just feels like my NVIDIA GPU is completely gone.

Issue with this is that only the video drivers from the vendor are supported by laptops, if the hardware is not there, and you can't roll back the drivers, only thing I can think of trying would be to do a system restore to the original OS like it...

Listing the CPU does not really give any info about the system.

Looks like a laptop correct? What model? Did you try the drivers from the laptop vendor? This happened when? Never worked? Anything happen before it stopped working? Maybe a bad video card/motherboard, did you contact the vendor support already?

Laptop: Toshiba Satellite C55-A-1H1
The laptop's vendor doesn't provide that driver for Windows 10
Guess you are asking for the date in order to use system restore. This happened some months ago, and when I checked it, I couldn't restore to a point before this happened.
It worked like 14 months after I bought the laptop, and 3 to 4 months after I upgraded to Windows 10. Maybe some Windows 10 update is the problem?
I don't think something happened before I noticed that it disappeared.

If it's a hardware issue, which does happen, that won't help you though.
