After latest Nvidia update Shadowplay FPS counter in Discord

Tech Support

Anyone else in the past week who uses Shadowplay been getting an FPS counter in non-game applications such as Discord? I thought I had screwed something up until I saw this post. [url]https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/994558/shadowplay-fps-counter-showing-in-non-game-applications-ie-discord-/?offset=2[/url]

Workaround is to go into Geforce Experience and manually turn off FPS counter overlay. Unfortunately, for FPS counter to show when I am running a game, in game I have to pull up Geforce Experience again (via shortcut) and turn on FPS counter overlay again. This means next time I mouse over discord the FPS counter pops up there as well.

Anyone found a fix?

hmm, hadn’t noticed on mine.

What OS / GPU you running?

Win 10 Home, 750 Ti. This only started after the last Nvidia software update, and apparently I’m not alone.

What FPS you getting? :laughing:

In case anyone else has this, found the “solution”.

In Discord settings > Appearance uncheck “Hardware Acceleration”. This is apparently on by default, not anything I messed with before.

I have seen the same in Discord since the NVidia Update.

That fix worked like a charm!
