cypress: [Solved] Windows 10 npm vesion throws Passthrough is not supported, GL is disabled
Current behavior
I haven’t used Cypress for a couple f months then this error started showing up:
[1720:1117/073201.722:ERROR:gpu_init.cc(441)] Passthrough is not supported, GL is disabled
I was on version 8.4.0. So I did a cypress clear cache, then installed v8.7.0 (interestingly v9.0.0 is available but npm elected to install 8.7.0)
I got the It looks like this is your first time using Cypress: 8.7.0 then
✔ Verified Cypress! then
Opening Cypress... then, after about a minute,
[1720:1117/073201.722:ERROR:gpu_init.cc(441)] Passthrough is not supported, GL is disabled
Desired behavior
It should open.
Test code to reproduce
n.a. See above
Cypress Version
v8.7.0
Other
I recently added a big monitor and am using the DisplayPort interface and this is the first time I am running Cypress since then. Given the error is about ‘gpu’ could there be some hardware setup / compatibility issue? Just a thought.

I deleted all of Cypress folders : "roaming , app data , modules " everything and reinstalled it . problem solved
The same here, except for slightly different code and message:
“[16080:1122/151752.429:ERROR:gpu_init.cc(453)] Passthrough is not supported, GL is disabled, ANGLE is”
Cypress v9.0.0
I have the same issue, but i don’t have cypress installed, so I hardly believe that cypress is causing the problem. Any other ideas?
In my case it was multiple screens. Anyone using an extended screen run npx cypress open, wait for the cypress icon to be visible inside taskbar. When you hower cypress icon with mouse, right click the popup window and click maximize. Hope this helps.
I might have fixed it. There might have been two issues. I deleted the folder
C:\Users\....\AppData\Roaming\Cypress\GPUCacheand restarted everything.Then:
> .\node_modules\.bin\cypress openopens the Cypress IDE. I can run my tests from the Cypress IDE (both Electron 93 and Chrome 96 work).After about a minute I still get
[18732:1203/111827.299:ERROR:gpu_init.cc(441)] Passthrough is not supported, GL is disabledbut it seems not to have any effect on running the tests.Fingers crossed! I will report back if any further issues.

I met the same problem on a linux machine with Cypress Version 9.2.0, is there any solution?
Same here 😦
Bom dia Pessoal… Estava com esse mesmo erro… outro QA da minha squad me pediu para rodar esse comando…na raiz do projeto, pelo terminal: npm install node-ipc Depois rode o Cypress…
Hi 😃 I permit to response because i got the same problem, can you help me ? https://github.com/minbrowser/min/issues/1753
Thanks you for your support Regards
What browser are you using? Cypress provided Electron? Chrome?
This appears to be a chrome issue as others are reporting it outside of cypress.
Some of the proposed solutions are passing in args when launching browsers. If you wish to try them with cypress follow this guide to modify the args passed when starting browsers.
It is not really a Win10 Issue, I have the same error on a linux machine with Cypress Version
9.1.1:Deleting
.config/Cypress/GPUCachewas not helping.Is it possible to change the chrome engine?
