GPU is not being used in FreeCAD weekly conda Windows releases. #176

Freecad weekly builds conda Windows version doesn't use GPU in Windows. In Task Manager, I confirmed that GPU is not being used, only the CPU is being used. So, FPS is very slow in FreeCAD weekly release. For reference, it's normal on Ubuntu.

I renamed bin/opengl32sw.dll to bin/opengl32.dll due to black screen problem. https://forum.freecad.org/viewtopic.php?t=36087&start=40 But, I got to know that opengl32sw.dll is for software rendering. So, GPU is not being used.

If I didn't rename it, the error message with black screen is below. err msg

The black screen problem happens with old HD5500 iGPU. I hope it works for the iGPU also.
