Getting Error message" Error in NVCPL.DLL Missing Entry: NvStartupRunOnEachSessionUserAccount" during startup

Original title: Missing Entry: NvStartupRunOnEachSessionUserAccount

A few seconds after my " Win8.1 Pro x64bit, fully updated as per today" have been completely started (or restarted), I get an error message reading:   "Error in NVCPL.DLL Missing Entry: NvStartupRunOnEachSessionUserAccount"

So far I have not noticed any strange behavior other than the presence of the said error message. Any idea about how to get rid of this (warning??) message, will be appreciated.

Also, it might be good to mention that I run the Windows 8.1 on the Bootcamp partition of an iMac, in dual-boot with MacOS.

Thanks in advance for any advice...

    Hi Nikolas,

    Were there any changes (hardware or software) made to the computer prior to the issue?

    NVCPL.DLL is part of the Nvidia Control Panel which normally loads at startup.  You probably just need to re-install your Nvidia graphics adapter drivers.  If you have any problems with that or need to download the newest drivers  you can get help at the Nvidia web site.

    Method 1: Perform the steps mentioned below and see if it helps.

    a: Press Windows key + X

    b: Then click Device Manager

    c: Now Expand Display adapter

    d: Now right click on the name of your adapter and select update driver software.

    Method 2: Place the computer in clean boot and check if it helps.

    To help troubleshoot error messages and other issues, you can start Windows 8.1 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This kind of startup is known as a "clean boot." A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: Check the title “How to reset the computer to start as usual after clean boot troubleshooting” for reverting to normal mode.
