You will need to reseat the Nvidia graphics card, uninstalling reinstalling the Nvidia drivers etc. Once you have done this the other graphics card should return.

To receive assistance from Dell chat support, they need to verify the warranty status and ownership. Then you must troubleshoot with them.  Click the "Get Help Now" icon on the right to start a live chat session. If already out of warranty, click here for the Dell out of warranty offering.

i flash the bios a20, then load defaults and exit. i re enter bios , the switchable graphics option came back under the video section. I think this event is like computrace event. Dell software engineers must create  a new bios file to solve this problem . Have a nice day

With a system that's as old as this one (2016) and that doesn't support Windows 11, that's very unlikely.
