I hope a fix is issued soon. Thanks.

Hello N@UT,
The fix as it stands today is getting graphics drivers supporting the indirect display driver model.
This will come from the graphics card vendor, unless Microsoft discovers something wrong in the OS.
OpenGL is for compute, therefore the OS gives the task to the graphics card to do: even for indirectly connected displays like DisplayLink, the graphics card does the computing. There is no reason for a difference in OpenGL version between a direct and an indirect display.

Kind regards,
Alban
