Are you saying that windows ignores the `powerPreference: "high-performance"` setting of the WebGL context creation?

Yes, we thought that was strange too but it kind of makes sense if the process is unaware that the GPU exists because of the OS settings.

As an aside, we also discovered that `powerPreference` is only a hint according to the spec, so there's no guarantee that an implementation will adhere to it: https://registry.khronos.org/webgl/specs/latest/1.0/
