Failed to create OpenGL context for format QSurfaceFormat
When launching fdm Version: 6.19.1.5263 (8f064dc5) , i occasionally and unpredictably get this error:
---------------------------
Free Download Manager
---------------------------
Failed to create OpenGL context for format QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlags<QSurfaceFormat::FormatOption>(), depthBufferSize 24, redBufferSize -1, greenBufferSize -1, blueBufferSize -1, alphaBufferSize -1, stencilBufferSize 8, samples -1, swapBehavior QSurfaceFormat::DoubleBuffer, swapInterval 1, colorSpace QSurfaceFormat::DefaultColorSpace, profile QSurfaceFormat::NoProfile) .
This is most likely caused by not having the necessary graphics drivers installed.
Install a driver providing OpenGL 2.0 or higher, or, if this is not possible, make sure the ANGLE Open GL ES 2.0 emulation libraries (libEGL.dll, libGLESv2.dll and d3dcompiler_*.dll) are available in the application executable's directory or in a location listed in PATH.
---------------------------
OK

thank you for the reference link.
For me, it errors randomly but not always when FDM is launched, both when something else launches it to download something, and also just launching it directly from start menu. I have not used context menu to launch this.
For more info, it only started happening after i switched to an Intel Arc graphics card. not sure if it has anything to do.
Is there a prospect for a more permanent fix in a future version? Thanks!

Hello,
Please test this version and let me know if it works better:

i will try this for a while and report if i continue to see the error, it's sporadic to begin with so i'll likely have to observe for a while before reporting back. thanks!

oops turns out i spoke a bit too soon.
after install, i immediately get these errors in succession:
the errors also appear when trying to launch from shortcut. they sometimes appear in different order (that i've seen: the "MSVCP140_1.dll" sometimes appears first, sometimes second). and fdm is unable to launch.
after install, i immediately get these errors in succession:

This seems to be ok so far, I will report back if it pops up again. Thanks
