Use Geforce Experience without registration and account - how it works

If you want to use Geforce Experience without registration, you can no longer do this since version 3.0 of the software. We explain to you in this practical tip whether and how you can avoid this.

Use Geforce Experience without registration - how it works

Geforce Experience is useful for tweaking game settings, finding new drivers, or recording gameplay videos. Since version 3.0 you can no longer use the program without registration.

• When starting the program you will be asked to create a user account or to enter your existing login data. Otherwise, further use is not possible.
• If you do not want to register, download an older version of the software. We recommend version 2.11.4.0 for this.
• There are websites where you can find and download past versions of Geforce Experience. Be sure to download only from reputable sources. Always have Malwarebytes or an alternative running in the background to check the files.
• Before installation, you may have to uninstall the newer version using the Control Panel. It may also be necessary to rename the installation file before running it in order to bypass the automatic update function. Therefore, make sure that the terms "Geforce", "Nvidia" or "Experience" do not appear in the file name.
• An alternative would be to manually download the new driver every time from the Nvidia website and to do without Geforce Experience. As a result, you also lose the additional functions of the software, such as screen recording or game optimization. You can find more versions of the drivers directly from the manufacturer.
• Without Geforce Experience, you will no longer be automatically informed about new drivers.
• A small freeware tool can at least simplify this process: The Tiny Nvidia Update Checker checks at startup whether there are newer drivers than the currently installed and downloads them if necessary. The tool does not have to be installed and it does not require a login.
