    This is because trouble occurs when the built-in graphics are enabled.

    Not evading the issue, but... Why do you have your built in graphics enabled?

    You can do that from your PC, don't ask the game team to fix something you easily could fix because you're lazy.

    Funnily enough, that used to be an option in the graphics settings. I have no idea why they removed it, but probably because it was redundant seeing that you can select the correct GPU in your PC settings.

    You can change such setting in Windows & select the dedicated GPU to be used for BeamNG instead of the integrated one

    That's a weird way of getting your point across. You've vaguely typed this message in such a way that its confusing to understand.

    I specified this application in Windows 10 settings to improve performance, but somehow it seems to work with built-in graphics. However, if the game is in safe mode, it will be launched from the GPU.
    The sentence may be strange because we use Google Translate.

    It's not a common practice to have a GPU option within the game, as that's often left to the Video Driver + OS PowerPlan settings.

    You could have a guide on the forum which tells people how to change the GPU preference in Windows per specific applications. It's rather quite straight forward, so even a typical PC user could do it

    Do you have your monitor plugged into the graphics card?

    We have this:
    https://wiki.beamng.com/Dedicated_Graphics

    Is there some new menu in W10 that is not mentioned in there?

    I wouldn't call it a "new menu" per se, but in Display settings in Windows there's an option called 'Graphics settings' where you can choose or browse for an .exe file & set your prefered GPU to do the heavy lifting in the program
