I thought advanced optimus was the best choice because it was released long before regular optimus, but I just noticed it might not be available anymore. The advanced optimus will automatically switch to dgpu when needed, so I can use it only for programs that require it while keeping the laptop in overall igpu mode. This should work, right? The idea is to enjoy video games in a window while browsing the web.

There seems to be no straightforward method to enable Windows 11 to boot everything via the laptop's integrated graphics card. The available options are limited, usually requiring disabling the GPU in Device Manager and restarting after enabling it.
