Game crashes when I press play: 'GLFW error 65544: WGL: Failed to create dummy context'

The bug

Fresh install of both Minecraft and Java, upon pressing play the launcher disappears and reappears after a few seconds.

Please check if that's still an issue for you in Minecraft 1.14.3 Pre-Release 2.

[MOD] Greymagic27

Still an issue in 1.14.4

Isn't it related to MC-297?

Yes, it probably is a driver or other kind of technical issue.

It would be good to know what kind of graphics cards are affected by this issue and whether they fulfill the minimum system requirements.

This PC doesn't meet the minimum system requirements.
