Nvidia desktop shadowplay recording - missing option

Question

Can we get a new GPU driver update for the Alienware m15s/m17s that could possibly fix this? Its been months since the driver page has received a GPU driver from Dell for these notebooks. Sure we can download them from Nvidia, but its not exactly the same and I tried about 6 different methods, all using clean installs, to get desktop capture working and it is simply, not working. And I don't want some 'just press alt-z and go to privacy settings to enable it', the option isn't there.Some think it is due to optimus with the Intel GPU. I have set the Nvidia control panel to use Nvidia high powered GPU and it still doesn't work. It has in fact, worked before. But due to the newest Nvidia driver update, it does not.

Same. It appeared for me yesterday, but then I changed the power options for my Acer Nitro 5 after that and now it's gone, again.
