Virtual Audio is required (on my PC) to get Shadowplay video recording/replay to work.

I'm not sure if this was just me but I just wanted to write somewhere that you need to enable Virtual Audio if you intend to use Shadowplay's video record functions. At least on my PC; without it Shadowplay does open but can only screenshot and cannot record.

I spent an hour enabling and disabling different components with DDU until I found out that recording works again if Virtual Audio alongside Geforce Experience + It's requirements + Shadowplay is enabled to get recording working.

Hello. with Geforce Experience + It's requirements + Shadowplay - shadowplay does not work for me, it does not even start, but an error is written that there is no general access. I can try again to reinstall the driver with virtual audio, but I don't want to torment ssd-drive again.
