Hi, I can not run ParaView on Windows 10 x64, I’m using the lastest installer "ParaView-5.7.0-RC4-Windows-Python3.7-msvc2015-64bit " and I get the error:
`GLEW could not be intialized missing GL version`

If you could just precise exactly what you did to fix the issue that would be great.

I get the error: GLEW could not be intialized missing GL version By doing some research on google I have found that the latest Intel drivers for Windows 10 for Intel HD 3000 graphics adapters do not support OpenGl which seem totally necessary for ParaView.
