
## Startup

It has been noticed that sometimes the Editor cannot be started (or starts with WebGL errors) and therefore cannot be
used. This problem has been noticed mostly on devices using Intel HD Graphics.

## Intel HD Graphics
There are 2 options to fix the startup problem.

### Changing Windows settings
- Open the Windows settings and search for `Graphics Settings`.
- In `Graphics Performance Preference`, select `Desktop App` in the drop-down and then browse to `BabylonJSEditor.exe`. You should now see it added to the list.
- Click on `Babylon JS Editor` in the list and click `Options`.
- Set your preference to `High Performance Mode`.
- Close and reopen the Editor.

### Updating the Intel UHD driver
[Install the Generic Intel DCH graphics driver](https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/30381/Intel-Graphics-Windows-10-DCH-Drivers) (the `Driver Support Assistant` is recommended).
Read the caveat, but in short: your default drivers are usually customized by the manufacturer, but this generic driver is not. Obviously, you run the risk of breaking something.

## Blurred UI

The Babylon.JS Editor is based on the Electron framework. On Win32 systems, it has been noticed that on
specific configurations, the overall UI of the Editor can be blurred.

This can be fixed by updating the drivers of the video card to the latest version.

In the case of RTX NVIDIA video cards, try installing the `Studio` driver version instead of the `Game` one.

For NVIDIA video cards in general, try opening the `NVIDIA Control Panel` and selecting `No Scaling` in the display settings.
