Occasionally I get startup problems on my Windows 10 Acer Nitro 5 Laptop although I'm not sure if it's the cause of my Nvidia software to stop working. My Nvidia GeForce experience software keeps failing repeatedly due to the localsystem container service constantly stopping itself, even though I try restarting the service it won't work. Whenever I experience issues with Nvidia Geforce experience, I always have to uninstall and reinstall the software using the Nvidia drivers website. I don't know what's causing the localsystem container service to fail, but I can't access the GeForce experience software without it.

I'll think about giving the clean boot a try but before I do so I just want to ask if there are any other solutions to my Nvidia GeForce experience problem. I never tried clean boot before and by the looks of the instructions, it seems like I have to disable a lot of things that might corrupt some of my games and other files.
The last time I checked, my Nvidia drivers were up to update when Geforce experience was still working. I also never forget to set my power management to high performance using Acer Nitrosense considering I'm a gamer.
Hello, MichaelPlays731
It’s pretty clear that your issue isn’t caused by Windows itself. I can’t possibly know every non-Microsoft program out there, so I’m not sure what else to suggest right now. But maybe someone else here has an idea.
Just so you know, a clean boot only disables certain services and doesn’t mess with your files. If you’re really worried, you can always back up your stuff beforehand.

Hello, MichaelPlays731
Remember I mentioned doing a clean boot earlier? Have you given it a shot yet?

Hello, MichaelPlays731
Welcome to Microsoft Community.
First things first, is your Nvidia driver up-to-date? If not, head over to the Nvidia website and grab the latest drivers.
Next, check your power management settings. Make sure you’ve got it set to high performance in both Windows settings (Control Panel) and the Nvidia control panel.
You might also want to try a clean boot. This starts Windows with just the essential drivers and programs, which can help you figure out if any third-party software is causing issues. It might seem a bit tricky at first, but just follow the steps one by one and you should be good to go.
