GLFW error 65542: WGL: Driver does not appear to support openGL

When trying to open and play Minecraft, the launcher opens and appears to be loading the game, but rather than doing so, brings up an error message: "GLFW error 65542: WGL: Driver does not appear to support openGL"

I have updated the graphics drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled the graphics drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled Minecraft, updated Windows to the latest version and confirmed there are no other updates, run sfc /scannow as an admin, and updated Java.

However, I still have the same error generating. I would appreciate any help! Thanks!
