Hi,

My laptop has an AMD FX-9830P processor with integrated Radeon R7 Graphics. It also has a dedicated GPU, the Radeon RX460.
Previously I could switch between them using the "Swtichable Graphics" option in the Radeon software. That option was removed in Adrenalin 2020 update so there is no way to do so using the Radeon software.
Browsing the forums here and on the AMD forums it seems like the way is to change the setting to "high performance" in Windows Graphics Settings. However, this still only presents me with the option of using the R7 card even though the RX460 is visible in Device Manager.

How can it be that Windows clearly recognises a graphics card but there is no way for me to use it? Is there a way to manually choose it?
