NVIDIA Control Panel won't open
To preface this, I'm entirely unsure if this is an issue with Windows Insider Dev builds specifically, or if there's something else wrong that I haven't been able to find on my own. I'm on Insider bu...
Next insights and workaround:
Seems something is wrong with the path validation / ACLs for executables.
But it's possible to start NVIDIA Control Panel from other locations.

The command will start nvcplui right after copying.
Get-AppxPackage 'NVIDIACorp.NVIDIAControlPanel' | % { Copy-Item -LiteralPath $_.InstallLocation -Destination $Env:USERPROFILE\Desktop -Recurse -Force; Invoke-Item "$Env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\NVIDIACorp.NVIDIAControlPanel_*\nvcplui.exe" }
I am experiencing the same thing, I have reset the OS but it did not solve the problem.
