Any idea how to switch this off, its very annoying and doent happen on the previous 11.4.1 version ~ Checked for driver update both in windows and with manufacturer ~ not available update ~ any help in getting rid of the annoying request appreciated.

@RikkFlohr do you think Adobe would consider this to be a bug, and be filed as such? It may be annoying, but it may be working as designed, to the chagrin of those of us who cannot update the driver :\

It isn't a bug. Meaning, it is behaving currently as-designed. There is an active feature request to have a "Do not show this again" check box for those of you who don't disable your integrated GPU via BIOS.

If it is not a bug, why has it taken until this version for the warning to appear?

Quite simply: Code changes that are 'as-designed' can occur at any time - even in conjunction with the only most recent version. The code changes that cause this warning dialog to appear are new to version 11.5 so it would have not been possible for it to show in previous versions.

It is not a bug.

So it's a new feature that just needs improving a bit more!

One wonders if Adobe has shares in Nvidia. I have an iGPU only. It's the latest from Intel, a UHD Graphics 770. It runs quite well with LrC except for the known glitch with Select Subject. However, every now and again, LR switches off the iGPU without warning, leaving me with just the CPU and even less graphics performance. Go figure. When I realise this has happened, I need to reset and reboot LR.
Yes, Adobe, I get the message. You want me to buy a $600 thumping 4GB discrete GPU. Great, but I'm not yet ready to dispense with my new perfectly good iGPU.

I find the whole GPU business an exercise in frustration. However, I would be inclined to check if some part of your system is overheating, causing throttling of some sort, thus causing Lr to switch off iGPU. I have meant to find a method myself to either warn me of pending critical temps, or have a simple log I can review if I suspect temp might be a factor in performance. Never got around to it, maybe a winter project.

I suspect it's hitting a bug in the driver. I think that's what this new dialog is trying to nudge people to check, as most just rely on the OS to update drivers even though the manufacturer's may have a better one.

I agree. Windows is very conservative in updating drivers. Normally that is a good thing but things are moving so fast at the moment. I've started using the Intel Driver & Support Assistant to get the very latest. It has fixed a number of issues but not all. Maybe, the very latest drivers puts the onus on software writers to keep up.

I had this issue. Showed as soon as update 11.5 There was an Intel card showing along with my Nvidia. Uninstalled it. It came back. Long story short, I checked my BIOS. Sure enough, intel was enabled. I disabled it. Problem solved. I don't know how it was enabled. I have not been in BIOS in months, and it was not showing in device manager prior to the update.

Thank you. This was also my problem. Disabling the Intel graphics card fixed the problem but Adobe should probably still fix their software to allow disabling of the update request.

Thank you! This was also my problem. I have no intention to go in my bios to fix this. In my computer is the Skylake GT2 and the NVidea Geforce GTx 960 M both drivers fully updated as far as possible. Stlll have the problem again and again by startup. I look in the Lightroom LC maps and found the map System Comptability Report containing json files in every langues. This map i Renamed. Problem solved! Also not an elegant solution ! I think Adobe have to solve this! How difficult is it to unable after having read in the same popup! ?
