Unable to load Minecraft. Error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: GLFW error 65542: WGL: The driver does not appear to support OpenGL

Hi

Tried loading minecraft and it says the game crashed whilst initialising the game Error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: GLFW error 65542: WGL: The driver does not appear to support OpenGL.

Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Is this related to my graphic cards and do I need to install or update anything?

Minecraft OpenGL error on windows 10, Driver does not support OpenGL.

I loved to play Minecraft: Java edition on my Windows 7 32-bit and I recently decided to upgrade to Windows 10( free download) 64-bit since I had a x64 based processor. I went onto Minecraft and loaded the launcher but as soon as it exits the start page
to bring the launcher it shows me an error that says "GLFW error 65542: WGL: The driver does not appear to support OpenGL. Please make sure you have up-to-date drivers( see aka.ms/mcdriver for instructions)." I've watched millions of videos on YouTube and
websites on google on how to fix the error and none of them helped. I also tried updating my driver and windows says it's the best driver for my computer. The only piece of support I've gotten was that WDDM drivers don't work with OpenGL. I checked my driver
and it in-fact was a WDDM driver, so I tried downloading a different driver and my computer doesn't meet minimum system requirements for Nvidia. Please help me on what to do and if to download a new driver( I am using a duo 2 core processor, dell, if that
helps)

 

Not supporting OpenGL

At 3:52, 23rd of March 2020, my Minecraft crashed. After that whenever I tried to restart it the result is "GLFW error 65542". It says that my driver does not support OpenGL but I had been playing Minecraft for a long time and I had not updated the driver
at all. I checked and my current GPU driver is Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620. I tried to install OpenGL too but the installer says that my laptop does not support OpenGL. Is there any way I can fix this? Is it normal that my driver does not support OpenGL?
