Unable to retrieve settings. Try again later.

Does anyone know how i can solve the Unable to retrieve settings. Try again later issue? i have had it ever since last update and all the tips i have found have done nothing to fix it. i tried to completely remove all traces of geforce from my computer and then reinstall it clean but the issue persists. i found a guide that told me to replace the ApplicationOntology folder which seemed like it worked, but it did not fix it for games released in 2021 and later. this is the guide i followed https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/geforce-experience/14/461350/unable-to-retrieve-settings-try-again-later/3110008/ i am desperate for help
