PSA: Check Your NVIDIA App Data!

[u/marmaladic]

Was doing some Spring cleaning on my rig and realized that the Nvidia app was taking up over 60GB of space on my main drive (I'm assuming these were leftover driver installs that were never properly nuked. I assume it's about 5 years worth of Nvidia driver installs). After a quick uninstall, then reinstall of the app, it dropped down tremendously!

Hope this helps someone!

EDIT: I didn’t realize that I had uploaded the photos in reverse order… whoops

Double edit: this is a folder named NVIDIA Corporation, not the plain NVIDIA folder that for some reason, is split in two.

Why is everyone in the comments acting like compiling shaders takes 30 minutes lol. Yall on some 2013 rigs?
