How to make Windows 10 work only a built-in video card, and if necessary in other applications include a discrete? I just had it before, and the discrete video card was not loaded in Windows.

In BIOS, there is a Graphic mode setting. Depending on the version of BIOS, there may be options, including Discrete, that is, only discrete. In this case, the system "will not know" about the existence of a built-in map.
Here is an article about laptops there, but the difference is not great!
Performance tuning in the power menu, as well as the level of performance in the program from nvidia, can help.
No need to change anything in BIOS. If the monitor is connected to a discrete video card, then it will work anyway. Without a load, for example, the desktop is just open, you will not even have a cooler on it, and the consumption will be reduced to "zero". If you are very worried, then the only factor that affects how soon your video card will burn out is the current that flows through it, reduce the voltage with the help of Afterburner, for example, and you will be happy.
