I have a MSI Laptop with a GTX 1060 in it. I can see the 1060 in device manager and have confirmed that the drivers are up to date but for some reason vMix is not seeing or giving me the option to select it to increase performance.

Any reason why? or how I can fix this?

I am running version 19.0.0.54

You have the graphics adapter set to default, which would be the Intel GPU.

Is the nVidia GPU not offered in the pull-down list?

Close out of vMix if it's open, right click on the desktop and choose Nvidia control panel. Under Manage 3D settings, Program settings tab, You will need to set vMix x64 to use the High-performance Nvidia processor. Then apply and OK then open vMix and it should now default to the Nvidia GPU.

I've seen this needs to be done on laptops with hybird graphics, Intel and Nvidia. At least on Dell and MSI laptops.

Upload vmix for version 20.
If it doesn't work, try to reinstal your drivers, in your laptop.
I work with gtx nvidia 1060 8gbram, at desktop. And nvidia 960 2gbram at leptop. It works well.

This is the right answer, we have this on all hybrid laptops
