I Installed Godot on Windows and for some weird reason it runs opengl 2 even though i have opengl 3.1 capable graphics card and i have the latest drivers installed. Also i ran Godot on opengl 3 on the same machine but under linux so anyone has a solution ?

Godot version 3.23

Card is opengl 3 capable, but Windows driver is not for example. Older AMD cards have more up-to-date linux drivers. AND NEVER USE AUTOMATIC DRIVER INSTALLATION ON WINDOWS. go to vendor page for driver.

Yes but i installed opengl viewer and it says that opengl version is 3.1 and that means that the drivers on windows support opengl 3.1.
