Cannot switch from Intel to Nvidia graphics [closed]

I have an Hp ab555-tx laptop with Nvidia G940m graphics along with Intel HD graphics. The system by default chooses the Intel graphics but I want to switch to the Nvidia one, which I am unable to do. Any help with switching to the Nvidia gpu would be highly appreciated.

Some useful info:

Running nvidia-smi gives the following output image

Running nvidia-settings gives the following output image

UPDATE: Removing linux lite 5.8 and installing ubuntu 22.04 solved the problem.

@helloubuntusudo prime-select nvidia returns sudo: prime-select: command not found. Installing nvidia-prime through shows this error
