What's the issue you encountered?

When launching v1.33.2, I'm seeing this error: image

The package I installed was: imhex-1.33.2-Windows-x86_64.msi

As recommended in the error, this package works without issue: imhex-1.33.2-Windows-Portable-NoGPU-x86_64.zip

imhex-1.33.1-Windows-x86_64.msi also works as expected, this issue appeared in 1.33.2.

Thank you for creating this incredible software! Love from the galaxy on fire modding community.

How can the issue be reproduced?

Install and launch imhex-1.33.2-Windows-x86_64.msi under windows 10. Other windows versions untested as of writing.

Hey! That's weird, it works just fine for me on Windows 11. If the NoGPU version works, then there must be something wrong with either your GPU or your graphics drivers since it looks like it doesn't support the OpenGL version we're using. Could it be that it's trying to run ImHex using your integrated graphics card instead of a dedicated one? Or are you working in a VM?
