I'm using Windows 7 64bit. In the Nvidia Control Panel -> Manage 3D Settings -> Program Settings area, if I check "Show only programs found on this computer", it only sees Freelancer, Neverwinter Nights (nwn.exe), Valve Steam (steam.exe), Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Windows Explorer. Freelancer and Neverwinter Nights were removed long ago (last year), and I have gone through the hard disk and registry removing any trace of them. New games that I have installed never show up. I am not able to make the list change. When I select new games by browsing with the "Add" button, new entries are added to the list next to the old entries with the same name, making it difficult for me to know if the profiles are even working.
This persists through removing old Nvidia drivers and installing new ones. In my latest attempt to get rid of this, I have used the uninstall function in the Programs And Features control panel, booted to Safe Mode, then used Driver Sweeper to remove all Nvidia drivers, then used search to remove all traces of Nvidia from both the hard drive and the registry, then installed the latest 258.96 WHQL drivers, and the issue is still there. Clicking the "Restore Defaults" link in the upper right corner of the Manage 3D Settings panel returns the list of programs found on this computer to include Freelancer and Neverwinter Nights, making me think there's a default file hidden somewhere that's overriding everything.
How is this possible?
