Hi there,
    I am using VMD for teaching a comp chem class. The classroom and student computers have Windows 11 OS. Unfortunately, the latest windows version of VMD 1.9.4a53 crashes immediately after launch.
I am a rookie with the windows setup. However, browsing through some of the previous errors, I found that "set VMDNOOSPRAY=1" solved the problem in some cases. However, it does not work in our case.
These computers do not have any dedicated GPUs. Any help is highly appreciated. The error message is the following.
