BTW you can try this solution:

> [@How to run ParaView (including the binary release) using Mesa on Windows](https://discourse.paraview.org/t/how-to-run-paraview-including-the-binary-release-using-mesa-on-windows/4321/8):
>
> For those who mesa-dist-win did not work as expected, you could also possibly grab the OpenGL3d.dll from [Mesa3D For Windows - Federico Dossena](https://fdossena.com/?p=mesa/index.frag) and follow the same instructions as the one given in the OP. This has worked for me in Virtual Machines instances of Windows 10.
