    I am also having the problem that @GoatsRMyLife and @_NIAGARA_ are having.

    Clicking "Fix The Problem" button takes you to this page:
    http://hopper.minecraft.net/help/pixel-format-not-accelerated/
    which states:
    Causes
    • Graphics drivers are outdated, they do not support required OpenGL support to run Minecraft.
    • Invalid memory allocation, if you set any Java arguments in your Profile Settings, please remove them.
    • On Windows 10, driver updates are automatically installed on your PC whereas previously they were optional. Sometimes the drivers obtained through Windows Update may not contain the proper OpenGL required for Minecraft. You should in this case update your PC's graphics driver as explained below.
    • On first- and second- generation Intel HD graphics chipsets, a Java version below 8u60 is needed on Windows 10. The new Minecraft launcher available on minecraft.net/download as a .MSI should automatically resolve issues on these chipsets.
    So far I have tried everything but the last step, installing an old java which seems like a headache. Hoping Squid gets updated sometime before blacklist day to just "automatically resolve issues on these chipsets."

    We can't cater to a specific chipset because of a user computer not working properly with it.

    If it doesn't happen with the default launcher then it shouldn't with the new launcher. The fact that it does makes it a bug. A bug in SquidHQ.

    The default launcher comes with an installer package to install Java, hence the issues

    Yusss! I solved it. I noticed in the launcher logs that the default launcher was using Java version 1.8.0_25 while Squid wanted to use 1.8.0_73, which is incompatible with my chipset.

    You can tell the launcher what version of java to use. Here's how I did it.
    1. Open your default Minecraft Launcher
    2. Click Edit Profile on the bottom left.
    3. At the bottom in Java Settings (Advanced) check the "Executable" box
    4. Copy the location, mine was "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minecraft\runtime\jre-x64\1.8.0_25\bin\javaw.exe"
    5. Uncheck that box to leave things as they were. Click Cancel and close minecraft launcher.
    6. Open SquidHQ Launcher
    7. I made a new Profile for SquidHQ by clicking New Profile otherwise click edit profile.
    8. At the bottom in Java Settings (Advanced) check the "Executable" box
    9. Paste the location you copied from the default launcher.
    10. Click Save Profile
    11. Play!
    Hoping this works for anyone else having this problem.

    All I did was just de activate Windows Defender long enough to d/l. It pretty much installed itself, so I hope it works okay.

    All false positives with SquidHQ should be fixed. Should now download flawlessly for everyone.
