Nvidia Shadowplay will only record in desktop mode?

Trying to figure out what is wrong. Earlier today I recorded some gameplay fine. Now when I try to record gameplay in the same game, it tells me I must turn on desktop mode under privacy settings. It is as if Shadowplay is not detecting the game is running and will only record the desktop. I have tried changing the display settings from Fullscreen to Borderless to Windowed and back to Fullscreen, but it seemingly does not detect the game.

Updated the drivers as well, issue still persists.

Obviously I just want to record the game itself, and not the desktop.

I had some problems like that with AMD's ReLive about two years ago with my 6600XT. Never had them with Nvidia. Dose it work with other games. If you hit Alt+F3 while in that game, dose the overlay stuff work ?

I figured out the fix, at least for me. Turn off monitor, remove cable, replug it in. I am using Display Port. I cannot explain why that would work but it seemingly did.
