Windows registry editor

Question

Hello everyone, I'm having a very annoying problem with my nvidia virtual memory/windows registry. I decided to try to increase my dedicated video memory so I went to my windows registry and selected the local h key machine, and then software, there was a Nvidia drop down, I clicked on it and made the required changes for increasing virtual memory, everything went smoothly and increased performance immensely. I decided to reset my my laptop one day and after setting up I don't have that Nvida drop setting anymore under software to change virtual memory in windows registry. the intel one is there but not Nvidia. I've tried everything Updated graphics cards, rolled back graphics cards, reinstalled windows even had a windows technician control my computer to try and help and they could not.

If anyone has any information to help I would appreciate GREATLY.

Ps it looks like I missing alot of other stuff in Registry after looking at other computers registry

Hi J R6

I am Dave, I will help you with this.

If you have re-installed or reset Windows that will have created a basic default registry, then when you install software and drivers that adds more registry keys and when you make changes in the Nvidia software that would also create more registry keys.

If you are following some tutorial to make those changes in the registry, if the registry keys do not exist, then you would need to create the registry keys they refer to.
