Windows 10: can't add a .exe file in graphic settings to set to run on high performance

Hello, I explained my issue here,https://forums.oculusvr.com/t5/Get-Help/problem-with-home2-exe-running-on-cpu/m-p/994117#M172784I wanted all my VR related applications to be run by the dedicated GPU and not the core graphic of my processor. I already know how to do this, I go to graphics settings, browse, file.exe, set to 'run on high performance', but one of them doesn't appear in the list, it's called 'Home2.exe' it's an unreal engine file. I can't launch an application in the oculus menu because of this, I know this from the task manager. Do you have an alternative solution to change this

:)

 

High Performance Power Settings

Hi,

Somehow I have completely lost the "High Performance" setting in Control Panel > Power. As now I totally need to rebuild this (believe me, this needs redoing), can anyone please supply a list of all exact settings in "Change Advanced Power Settings".

Thank you,

DC

 

Custom Driver : Intel HD Graphics & ATI Combo (Alpha) - by nIGHTmAYOR

according to laptop support page they do list an old downloadable driver for intel for windows 7 , weather this is related to there being several variants of that laptop or this laptop has switchable graphics i may just suggest you reset the bios and see if things change , if yes you may be able to apply step 2 , if not then apply step 4 and call it today , you are still better off being on the high performance gpu .

Out of curiosity can you take a snap shot from Settings > System > Display. Scroll down and click the “Graphics Settings” ?
