hi, i have an acer predator 17, and i've run to this problem where certain apps don't work by themselves, like obs, blender and unity. i found online that i can fix this by manually choosing wich graphics card is handling wich program, usually only works with the intel one (power saving), but it's actually quite annoying to have to manually find each app that needs this to work,  so i'm asking if someone has figured out a solution that isn't just doing the thing i was doing.

thank you in advance

    also, would like to add that using the global settings from nvidia control panel to set the preferred graphics processor doesn't seem to work for me

    Nope, afraid thats the way to do it :( It should work with either graphics card though
