Hardware acceleration disabled only when using Displaylink - Windows 10

Hello,

It would depend on which version of Windows 10 Home you are using. You can get this from the about section of the settings of Windows.

However, from the description, I would think the issue is around the application not being about to route the calls to the graphics card.
DisplayLink doesn't do that feature and never has. This is a feature of the GPU, not the DisplayLink driver (or that would be software acceleration, not hardware) or adapter.

What kind of "hardware acceleration" does your application use?

Kind regards,
Alban
