    Graphics card preference being ignored by windows.


    Hello!I have a problem with windows. My graphics card preference keeps being ignored if I have my external monitor connected to my laptop. When connected, the bigger external display becomes my primary monitor, and the smaller laptop one becomes the secondary. So when I start an app, it starts on the larger monitor, not the smaller one, which causes windows to ignore the preference for that app to run on the integrated graphics card and runs it on the dedicated one.Meaning if I want to start the app on the integrated graphics, I need to unplug the monitor, start the app, wait for it to be read
