Problem with launching VNote on remote machine #1830

I try to run VNote on machine to which I connect via RDP (both remote and local machines run Windows 10). It fails with the following error:
Screen-shot_2021-08-04_09-57-49

It happens in remote session only. When I sit in front of that machine VNote launches normally.

I found a work-around which is to forcibly disable the video-card of the remote machine in Device manager:
Screen-shot_2021-08-04_10-04-30

It works, but... the remote machine must be restarted for the video-card to become properly disabled (and later be restarted again, when I need to use it locally). Besides, the work-around is not exactly elegant, is it? You may want to investigate this issue.

P. S. Many thanks for nice and handy piece of software!

Maybe you need to try out the OpenGL option in the settings one by one. See #853

@tamlok Thank you for you answer. Unfortunately, none of the tricks listed in that thread has worked (I tried various values for the QT_OPENGL system environment variable and the corresponding VNote options).

Actually, I have noticed exactly the same behaviour for another similar Qt-based piece of software called Ghost writer. Apart from that there were report on Internet that Autocad and some Adobe software (I can't remember which one it was) is plagued with it as well. That makes me strongly suspect the problem lies with some Qt libraries, rather than with your code. That being said, you still may want to wish to investigate it, provided it'll be reported by other users (surely, it might be a subtle problem with my machine configuration).

I encountered the same problem with the remote tool (sunlogin/todesk). The remote machine could not render the. md file,

It is completely normal to open with this machine when sit in front of this machine.
