Looks alright. Mine is the same as yours. Files and even Geforce Experience empty on one and not on the x86 folder.

Btw, there was a recent update that kind of screwed up my Nvidia GeForce Experience.
End up, I did a full uninstall and installed back the latest version from the website and finally the shortcut alt+Z works again but I did have to re-enter all the values like save locations and how big the files will be depending on the quality. It seemed like just before I uninstall, the old update file and the new one was clashing with each other meaning there was a bad un-installation of the old files for its own update method.

As for Windows 10, there is a hidden option if you had chosen to use a USB with the Windows 10 file (I used a laptop that I had around to down to the USB). Then just plug in the USB on the PC and you'll get an option to 'Reset this PC' but be able to choose "Keep My Files". It will basically reinstall Windows without deleting anything including your programs (applications) and files. The only thing left to do is to just install drivers again if u have any issues. Quite convenient.
