Browse menu crashes Anki

Hello!

I use anki daily, and overnight the browse menu now crashes the app, regardless of which deck is selected. I have attempted to update Anki to the newest version however the browse menu continues to crash the program.

The only thing that has changed since last night is I have updated my video card drivers. I have reverted back to my original version (2.1.30) with no change. Of note is my anki is working normally on my second computer (laptop). Any help appreciated. Thank you

Edit: starting with addons disabled (shift key) had no affect.

Edit: Browse menu continues to crash anki. I am able to open up the browse menu from within a card. Opening the browse menu from the main menu crashes anki.

Thank you Abdo. Hardware acceleration on/off had no affect.

Attempting to use the run command on the posted link is having no feedback. I have included the picture showing the run command having no affect.

The command won’t give any output, but you should restart Anki after running it and see if it helps.

Thank you Abdo. I appreciate your help.

For others, using this code
echo auto > %APPDATA%\Anki2\gldriver

except using the “angle” version of it (shown below) worked.

echo angle > %APPDATA%\Anki2\gldriver
