Installation problem

• May 4, 2019 - 22:42

I have just attempted to install MuseScore3, and have encountered a problem. (Musescore2 was previously installed successfully). When I attempted to run MuseScore3, I received this error message:

"Failed to create OpenGL context for format QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlags(), depthBufferSize 24, redBufferSize -1, greenBufferSize -1, blueBufferSize -1, alphaBufferSize -1, stencilBufferSize 8, samples 0, swapBehavior QSurfaceFormat::DefaultSwapBehavior, 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."

Then MuseScore crashes. What is the problem, and how can I fix it?

A possible fix will be in 3.1 Beta 2, to be released very shortly.
Until then starting MuseScore via double click on a score and then in preferences disable Startcenter might work
