How to fix Rust not showing up in GeForce Experience?
Firstly, make sure to update all software applications involved. Sometimes, all you need is an update to fix an underlying bug causing troubles. Check if there are any pending updates to Rust or the GeForce app. If updating the GeForce Experience app doesn’t solve the issue, a good idea would be to reinstall the program just in case. Uninstall GeForce Experience first, head over to the official NVIDIA site, and download the app again.
If the above-mentioned tip doesn’t help, update your graphics drivers. Open Geforce Experience and check if there are any pending updates to drivers. Download and install, if any. Now, restart your PC and check whether Rust is showing up on GeForce.
If updating the graphics drivers also does not help, check if the app is scanning the right folder. Open the GeForce Experience app, navigate to Preferences > Games, and check if any of the folders selected to be scanned contains Rust.exe. If not, you’ll have to select the folder in which Rust is installed for the app to detect it.
