I likewise updated my NVIDIA card with drivers from their web site, and started getting this error message. When during a Windows update I saw an update for the NVIDIA card, I downloaded and installed it. Even though it actually installed an older driver, it seems for at least today to have fixed the problem.

Missing file by: Barbunc
Yep... I'm having the same issue. I'm using an 8500 GT and it's missing NvCplRestorePersistence. Can't seem to find the file DLL to rebuild it.
