THIS!! Created an account just to ask for this.
Would like to display the games currently used DLSS version on my RTSS OSD overlay, instead of enabling it in regedit and having to close the game to disable it.
Is it possible to implement a DLSS indicator like feature to HWINFO?

Problem with reporting this indicator is that DLSS works on a per-process basis.
So reporting the actual state requires determining the game's PID first. Asking the user to provide this is a no go. It could be possible similar to how PresentMon constantly monitors all processes and selects the one that has the highest GPU load, but it's not absolutely reliable...
Anyway, we'll look at this and see if it's possible to come up with some useful implementation...

Update after some evaluation/testing..
NVIDIA provides an API to query some DLSS state parameters. Unfortunately this API is quite limited and it can only retrieve the feature override flags and some other information which probably isn't relevant for users (e.g. reasons why an override is active or not). The whole API is poorly documented and also doesn't return the active DLSS version. Maybe it could be used just to indicate whether DLSS is currently active but that would be all for the time being.
Hopefully NVIDIA will enhance the APIs in future... If they do, we can easily add the indicators.

Thank you for spending the time to look into it, this feature would actually be awesome, not a lot of people are willing or don't know how to edit registry values so they download these questionable "mods" and .reg files off the internet.
Hopefully NVIDIA updates their API...

To think about it doesn't make sense, cause MOST games except most recent games or updates use outdated DLSS versions anyway and NV app can't force if for most games. I just copy fresh version of nvngx_dlss.dll in every game folder and 100% sure it uses it. If wanna recheck and be sure 10000% just use regedit way.
