Add NvOptimusEnablement and AmdPowerXpressRequestHighPerformance exports to hint the NVIDIA/AMD driver to select the discrete GPU on Windows hybrid graphics system
Problem:
On Windows laptops with hybrid graphics, xSTUDIO defaults to the integrated GPU. Adding
NvOptimusEnablementandAmdPowerXpressRequestHighPerformanceexports forces the NVIDIA/AMD driver to use the discrete GPU instead.Testing Environment:
Tested on Windows 11 built from source with Visual Studio 2022 and Qt 6.5.3 MSVC. xSTUDIO launches correctly on the discrete GPU.
Changes:
src/launch/xstudio/src/xstudio.cpp: Added#ifdef _WIN32block exportingNvOptimusEnablementandAmdPowerXpressRequestHighPerformance. No effect on Linux/macOS.
