I am facing a huge performance issue while using Adobe Premiere Pro. Having 2 GPUs is a huge problem as Intel's GPU is not allowing Nvidia's GPU to function properly. I want to use Nvidia's GPU as my primary GPU but somehow there is no any option to do so. While rendering / exporting, Intel's GPU is always at 8-10% while Nvidia's GPU is at 1-2%. Why can't I use my GPUs to its full power? I want to use my Nvidia's GPU as the primary one. Please help, it drastically reduces my efficiency and speed.Screenshot (162).png

What you need to do is to use both the intel and nvidia drivers provided by your laptop manufacturer. Do not use the intel generic driver.

 

If you still have issues, contact your laptop manufacturer.

Al is correct. By loading the standard drivers from Intel and NVIDIA, you have lost the customizations that allowed the drivers to switch which is active. Hard and fast rule: If you have laptop with dual graphics, do not use drivers from the Intel, NVIDIA and/or AMD sites without the laptop manufacturer telling you it is ok to do so.
