Nvidia Graphics

Overview

Nvidia Graphics is a software program developed by VIZIO. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The setup package generally installs about 32 files. Relative to the overall usage of those who have this installed, most are running it on Windows 10. Most users that have installed this software come from the United States.
