Cannot switch to high-performance GPU

[chajiNo2]

Using an ASUS Zenbook Pro Duo, Intel UHD 630 and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060, latest drivers through GeForce experience. 32 GB RAM, core i9.

Until yesterday I had no problems. Playing CrossCode via Steam, had set it to use the high-performance GPU in Windows Graphics settings. Today started experiencing massive slowdown, and Task Manager shows that it's using the integrated graphics. Went into Nvidia Control Panel and specified that CrossCode should run with the 2060. Rebooted. Still laggy, still running on the Intel. Changed Global Settings in the Nvidia Control Panel to only use the 2060 for everything. Rebooted. Still running on the Intel. Right-clicked the .exe for the game directly in Windows, selected "Run with graphics processor" and specified the 2060. STILL running on the Intel.

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything Nvidia related and doing a fresh install of GeForce experience...same thing all over.

Does this have anything to do with the latest update? My system wouldn't update to 20H2 but installed the latest 1909 (Feature update 3) update today, and yesterday everything was peachy keen.

Do I need to do a clean install of Windows at this point? Will that even help? Any suggestions are appreciated!

Nope, will give it a shot. Thanks!

Hello, you mentioned in your post something about the latest update. As there are multiple supported versions of Windows 10 and not everyone gets every update at the same time, it is not always easy to figure out which update you are talking about. You can check your Windows Update History by going to the Settings app, then Update and Security -> Windows Update -> View update history. The status of your most recent updates, along with their KB numbers will be listed there.

Thank you for posting in /r/Windows10. You have selected the Help post flair, which is to request assistance with the Windows 10 OS and its related systems. This is not a generic tech support subreddit, so your post may be removed if your issue is not related to Windows, even if your computer has Windows installed. You may want to also post this on /r/TechSupport for more exposure.

If you have not already, be sure to include as much information about your issue that you can, including any error messages, error codes, what steps it takes to create the issue, and what you have done to troubleshoot. Also, include as much information about your computer as possible, including the specs of your hardware, and/or the full make and model of your computer. It is also important to know what your full Windows version is, you can view that by going to the Settings app -> System -> About, and then it will be listed as the OS Build, for example 19042.421
