Game completely refuses to use the right gpu no matter what I do.
Okay so, I've had this issue for a long time now, and I've tried literally everything to fix it. Randomly one day after having no issues playing the game the game stopped using the proper gpu in my laptop and insists on using the integrated graphics card, which naturally leads to an unplayable framerate.

My GPU is more than capable of running this game (3060 laptop gpu) and any other games all the solutions I tried to fix this worked. Editing the nvidia settings, messing around with game configs, forcing it into high performance mode, etc., etc. And it REFUSES still.

It really sucks cause I genuinely want to play this game a lot more but I just can't cause its literally unplayable. If anyone happens to have had a similar issue and found some sort of solution, I'd love if you could share, cause I've found nothing online that fixed it for me.

Also, if it helps at all, I noticed when troubleshooting that in task manager it actually starts off on the regular gpu, but then switches to the integrated one after a few seconds. Makes it even more confusing to me as to what could be going on, honestly, but I figured that might help people figure out the issue.

Have you tried uninstalling your GPU drivers > restarting pc > install GPU drivers again via geforce experience?.
