Windows 10, Nvidia Optimus

[tricky disco]

Hello
How can I make the game works with Windows 10 and Nvidia Optimus to play on Nvidia card?
I set all in nvidia panel, i set performence profile in windows settings, i set performence mode for sc4.exe. I added my GPU in sc4 files. Googled everything and tried. Even used Nvidia Inspector. The game doesn't use Nvidia card. Please, help :) Software mode works, but doesnt satisfact me, 75fps with getting to 30. OpenGL mode - white everything.

My cpu: i7-8750h
My gpu: GTX 1050

See here for a similar issue:

Long and short, you can try everything mentioned in that thread. But ultimately the NVidia drivers should be making the NVidia GPU run when SC4 is launched. Put another way, SC4 has no control of what GPU the system presents it with.

If NVidia's software isn't doing what you tell it to, that suggests a driver problem to me.

most people forget to keep their IGPU uptodate too, which is mostly needed to switch to the dedicated GPU.

If you are sure no such files exists in the Installation/apps directory, it could be because the game has yet to successfully launch. Otherwise, I suspect you are looking in the wrong place for it.
