Fix For Quickly Draining Battery on Hybrid Mode

Problem: Problem: dGPU is always active when in Hybrid Mode, and battery drains too fast
Solution:

  1. Click on Start > Control Panel > Nvidia Control Panel.
  2. Click on the Desktop menu > Display GPU Activity Icon in Notification Area.
  3. On the taskbar, in the right corner, there will be a new icon. Point your mouse over it and find out which application is using the dGPU
  4. Open Nvidia Control Panel
  5. Go to 3D settings → Manage 3D settings
  6. Set the guilty app to use iGPU instead
