thanks for the answer! Only problem is that Microsoft "Basic Display Adapter" keeps reinstalling itself when the computer is being rebooted

Hmmmm that's a new one for me. Instead of uninstalling it, you could try right clicking on it and select disable. The fact that it keeps reinstalling makes it seem like the OS is not seeing your GTX 1060 when you first boot it. Does the GTX 1060 have the most recent drivers installed from the Nvidia website?

yes I installed the newest drivers today, disabling just causes to completely mess up the graphics and when I check what the monitor is running on it still says Basic Display Adapter

Does your laptop by chance have the hybrid feature where it switches between integrated and dedicated graphics?

I think it does. Maybe worth mentioning might be that i can't access the nvidia control panel after uninstalling the basic display adapter
