Issue description

Hallo, ich habe FreeCad 0.20.2.2 auf meinem Laptop installiert, jedoch startet das Programm nicht.
Nach Doppelklick auf das FreeCad Symbol sieht man einen Startvorgang für etwa 5 Sekunden, dann geschieht nichts weiter.
Ich würde gerne auch etwas spenden, aber für ein Programm, welches nicht einmal startet ...
Ich hatte vorher Autocad Inventor 2020 auf meinem Laptop installiert - dieser lief einwandfrei ...

Anything else?

OK: I have installed FreeCad 0.20.2.2 on my Laptop. But the Software doesn`t start.
If I doubleclick on the FreeCad Icon, it starts to load but only about 5 seconds. Then nothing else happens.
I would even donate for FreeCad, but if the Software doesn´t even start - sorry.
Befor FreeCad I had installed >Autocad Inventor 2020< , it was running perfect. But the Licence has expired.
So can anybody tell me what´s the problem - even better - who can solve it?
Thx

Try installing the development version to see if you can reproduce the issue

check the known issues list and see if one of those applies to you: https://forum.freecad.org/viewtopic.php?t=30573

it's likely a graphics driver issue

[adrianinsaval]

also do as xtemp09 has said, run FreeCAD.exe --write-log and provide the log file that should be created at %APPDATA%/FreeCAD
without more information from you there's nothing we can do.

I have solved the issue.
If there are two graphiccards on the Notebook and one of it is an AMD mobility -
open the "catalyst center"
go to "umschaltbare Grafikkarten"
go to "Anwendung hinzufügen"
and choose "Path\FreeCad.exe" on your System.
click on "FreeCad.exe" and choose "Hochleistung" (in the attached Picture it´s another Program - example like "videodeluxe.exe"
click on "save" (übernehmen)
and so FreeCad should start without any issue.
