Omfg i love you ! This worked

That's true, but you, and I, missed that the system is x86 which means 32 bit. So another potential fix for the OP is to use the 32 bit installer on the website, which may or may not resolve the issue. However, without anything else to go on, console log, there isn't much I could say and I've been off the support game since September/October 2018. The point I was making is that you were suggesting very drastic solutions that may well work but only if the end user knows what they are doing. If done incorrectly the solutions you presented could cause other issues which is why they shouldn't be presented as a 100% repeatable fix. Good eye! Totally missed that, hopefully changing to the x86 (32 bit) version will fix the issue. Please update us! OpenGL 3 will still work with the client. His Intel CPU isn't that old based on the specs posted and is within the last 10 years. If you had bothered to read I mentioned that Windows 10 broke some previously supported GPUs on upgrade. Checking the manufacturer website for an update, which will remove older drivers safely, is a potential method but does not guarantee a fix. In fact, there is no one size fits all fix for everything, and I should know since I was Head Support Mod for the better part of 4 years or more. What fixes one person's problem may not be what fixes another. Of course the client supports open gl 3... The point I'm making is that If windows 10 doesn't support opengl 3 for his CPU, but his CPU does support opengl 3 then the problem is actually windows 10 itself. This could be the reason windows 7 worked well but the upgrade to windows 10 doesn't. If there are no other options besides switching hardware because of Microsoft's lack of support, is switching to another operating system really that drastic?? (Do your own research and don't rely on what we say on this forum as fact. Especially when configuring a operating system.)

Not necessarily true. Min System Requirements can be found in the article below. From the sound of it, the OP meets them. The requirements still includes opengl, and if hes using a old intel cpu that isnt supported on windows 10 then he wouldn't actually meet those requirements. Not meeting those requirements is the reason he has to use compatibility mode which cuts on system performance and could be whats making his client unplayable. If you have a way to fix openGl on internal graphics not being supported by windows 10 please tell me so I can use my windows machine again. A 1500mhz single core processor is not a fast CPU, this would mean the OP does not meet the requirements of compatibility mode aswell. Though this should be tested of course.

If you do have a dedicated graphics card i would start with uninstalling your graphics driver from device manager & reinstalling the drivers from their website as well as checking if the company is still supporting that graphics card. If you're using internal hd intel graphics then you might be out of luck like I am, im currently using a intel 3470 with internal graphics and opengl doesnt work at all.. To my knowledge the problem comes from intel discontinuing open gl support on alot of older chips and leaving it up to windows to keep things updated which they haven't done.. Its kind of their way of forcing you to upgrade in my opinion. The way i got around this and got opengl to work was by switching to Linux mint, (most familiar linux distro for windows users). Switching to Linux gives you the benefit of having more support for older hardware because you have over 1400 companies that have worked on the Kernel (The kernel is basically a built in driver database, so no more driver installs!) Vs Microsoft that picks what hardware they want to support based on profits mainly.. If the Linux Kernel stopped supporting opengl for specific hardware, someone would update it themselves and release it. There are also other advantages to Linux like the ext4 filesystem and never needing to restart or defrag your system. Linux is the future, thats the reason over 90% of all servers use it. If you do consider switching i would suggest Linux mint 19 cinnamon or Linux light, Cinnamon will run at 900mb ram at start and Linux light runs less then that.

Could i please get the list of your system specs? (run Cmd prompt as admin > type systeminfo) paste it all here if possible

Bump, looking for some confirmation about this possibly being a update..

Ill try runnning a VMbox with win7 to confirm this, thanks!

After updating to the latest patch on both my PCs (linux & w10), I'm now unable to hold A to cycle from Fight > Shadow Ball > Fight > Shadow Ball for example. Has anyone else had this issue or is it a feature that was removed? I checked the patch notes and didn't see it mentioned. Thanks in advance!
