It depends on the recording software you're using. Most people use Geforce Shadowplay to record their videos, review them on the File Explorer tab, go to videos, and than go from there to find where the video was saved to. Mine are automatically saved into a self-generated folder called "Dead by Daylight", so that's most likely where your videos will end up.
After that, most people will upload their videos onto youtube, wait till the video is uploaded, grab the link to said video, and than copy and paste it in their comment (if they needed it for something). Some videos you can covert and compress in VLC Media Player (a default program in most computers) to reduce their size, but it's not really necessary if you're just going to upload the video and than delete the source file in your folder to free up space.
You can download Geforce Experience through their website, if you haven't already.

It's worth noting that GeForce Experience (I believe) only works with NVIDIA graphics cards. OBS is a popular alternative. Regardless, if you're using a recording software, usually it will have an option in the program to view the folder where your files are saved. By default, OBS saves to the Videos folder on your computer.
If you're on console, the procedure is completely different again. So in order for us to give you more relevant advice, you'll need to let us know your platform and, if you're on PC, what software you used to record the video 😊

I wasn't aware that Geforce Experience only responds to NVIDIA graphics cards, somewhat of a foresight if you ask me.
Regardless, the recording software most people use is Geforce Experience, anything else would require a bit more digging to use as an alternative. As for Console, that's and entirely different process which I personally don't have any information on (since I don't play the console version OR play console in-general anymore).

I think "most people" is a bit of a presumption and probably more people use alternatives than you're giving them credit for, but that's neither here nor there as far as this discussion goes. Point is, there are a bunch of possibilities as to what the video might have been recorded in, and we'll need more information before we can answer the question properly.

Well I say "most people" from what I've seen, whether that's true or not is not really my point, my point is that it's a more common game recording software that's easily accessible for those who own a NVIDIA graphics card.
As far as players that don't though, i'm not really familiar with other recording software to speak of, so I guess i'm not qualified to bother with this question as a result. My original understand was that Geforce Experience can be used by everyone, but limiting it to only those with a specific graphics card is something I didn't expect.
Sometimes a question looks easy enough to answer at first glance, but you've known me long enough to know that I sometimes forget about other possibilities as well when a question comes up. I don't do it as often anymore, but it sometimes happens still.

That's alright, none of us are perfect! I'm sure everyone around here appreciates the effort you put into trying to help people regardless 😊 As for the GeForce thing, the software is made by NVIDIA, so I guess it makes sense that it would only be compatible with their hardware. That being said, GeForce GPUs are very common, so it's not an unreasonable expectation that the majority of people would have access to the software.

Thank you!
And yeah, it's not an unreasonable expectation for those who do own the software, for others who don't it get dicey from there. Unfortunately there isn't much else I can add to this question besides what I'm aware of, so hopefully someone else can help the OP out with that, maybe on the technical support sub-forum if they're desperate for some advice on that.
