I don't know much about your particularly brand of laptop, so the specifics may vary a bit. Nonetheless...
Your DXDIAG report suggests you are trying to play with the built-in display, which will very likely use the on-board graphics. This will not work. The game needs to leverage your 3050 Ti to work. So, you need to figure out how to achieve this with your particular brand of laptop. I would expect that disabling on-board graphics and/or connecting and external display would do it. Key point is you need to ensure your laptop is using the 3050 Ti to run the game.
It's getting really weird now, I did disable the on-board graphics in BIOS as you told me, but the new dxdiag showed me that "There is a problem with Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics device. For more information, search for 'graphics device driver error code 22". Also, that didn't make the game able to launch.
I checked the graphic card settings. It tells me that for all the games I have they would use the 3050Ti as top priority.
Maybe it's some other problems, maybe the auto-deleted files, I think.
You can check the new dxdiag after I disabled the on-board graphics here.
That error code suggests that the Iris graphics needs to stay enabled.
Also, the DXDIAG report suggests the external monitor is running thru the Iris graphics, not the 3050 Ti.
You need to contact your laptop/motherboard manufacturer to determine how to ensure you're using the 3050 Ti.
