I read : Nvidia : remove "DxCache" folder from the "systemprofile" LocalLow folder.

Any relation ? with ; https://github.com/Aetopia/NVIDIA-Shader-Cache-Explorer

For information
https://github.com/Aetopia/NVIDIA-Shade ... r/issues/4

(NVIDIA 57X.X+ driver shader cache format is not supported)

I discussed the subject on another forum and indeed BEFORE we had

Code: Select all

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\NVIDIA

Now it is (Since NVIDIA 545.xx) I guess this is what you use

Code: Select all

%USERPROFILE%\Appdata\LocalLow\NVIDIA\PerDriverVersion

Microsoft's CleanMGR always goes to the old folder

I will not spam by giving the link, but by automatic translation of certain paragraphs

-----------------------
Usage scenario: When you have for example a crash with the compilation of shaders (during their construction) it would be wise to clean all unfinished shaders (obviously their location is different depending on the game) AND all the remains of Nvidia

Same during a driver update including GeForceExperience, or changes to game settings involving shaders
In fact, cleaning should ALSO be done during major NVIDIA driver updates

Some cache elements remain, from previous drivers and are NOT cleaned by installing a new version of the drivers
This can cause problems following major updates e.g. Nvidia drivers and we can have crashes of games or applications

C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\LocalLow\NVIDIA

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Packages\{applications}\{{"\AC\Temp\NVIDIA Corporation", "\AC\NVIDIA", "\LocalCache\Local\NVIDIA"}}
