Ugly graphics since new Windows 11

[shunkan2g 1]

Since I upgraded to windows 11 the preview graphics of the print looks hella ugly.. its like i dont own a graphics card.. i cant find any settings to improve it. I cant see the layer hight properly on this setting.

Check if the driver for your GPU was correctly installed and if there's an updated driver from your GPU manufacturer.

I reinstalled the driver thrice now and it still wont look like before. Are there any settings within cura?

Are you running Cura on a computer that has multiple GPUs? Eg an integrated intel GPU and the nVidia GPU? In that case it could be that (in Windows 11), Cura is running on the integrated GPU. Try if you can force Cura to open on the dedicated NVidia GPU instead.

That could be the case do you have any hint on how i can force windows to do that?

That didn't work for me 😕

What did you do or try?

I don't have Windows 11 installed, so I can't check, but this should do it:

I did it like in the video but that didnt work.

Sorry, I really can't help you if all the feedback I get from a suggestion is "that did not work".

 

What did not work? Did you not find the dialogs, or were their contents different? Did you not find Ultimaker Cura in the list of applications? Or did you successfully perform all the steps to set the "Graphics preference" of Ultimaker Cura to "High Performance", but it did not change the behavior inside Cura? Did you restart Cura and/or your computer after setting the preference?

 

See, there are a lot of details you could be giving to help us help you.  I'm going to stop guessing, until I get more details.

Sorry my work interrupted my free time. 
I tried to force windows into using my GPU for Cura but that did not work. 
Cura is now in High Performance mode but nothing changed.

Update:
I checked that OpenGL is up to date and the version I have is 4.6, so that can not be the issue there.

I assume that Cura is not compatible with W11 and is not seeing that i got OpenGL 4.6.
