  I have no idea whether nVidia willing to change that list for small software publishers. Technically, I know 2 workarounds. 1. If your app’s main .exe is written in C, C++ or something similar, you can change the default by DLL exporting a DWORD variable from your exe. For more info, search the web for `NvOptimusEnablement`. 2. If you can’t export variables from your .exe, you can do what I did: make an installer, write a custom installer action in C (technically they’re just DLLs), in that custom action consume NVApi and create a new profile for the main executable of your software. For more info, read this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/40915100 https://stackoverflow.com/a/40915100 Update: you can also detect dual-GPU system and use NVApi from your app, but it has 2 disadvantages. Slightly increases startup time. Also the new settings will only be applied next time user launches the app, you’ll need to communicate it that with your user, with a message like “please restart the game for better 3D performance”.
