Errors related to opengl32.dll can arise for a few different different reasons. For instance, a faulty application, opengl32.dll has been deleted or misplaced, corrupted by malicious software present on your PC or a damaged Windows registry.
In the vast majority of cases, the solution is to properly reinstall opengl32.dll on your PC, to the Windows system folder. Alternatively, some programs, notably PC games, require that the DLL file is placed in the game/application installation folder.

The first thing to notice is that I was linking against opengl32.dll, not .lib. I saw a bunch of questions / posts online that state that when you install Windows SDK you have a opengl32.lib in Program Files/Microsoft SDKs/Windows (x86 or otherwise). This is not the case for me. I have even reinstalled the Windows 10 SDK and it does not install any opengl lib, static nor dynamic, anywhere.
Which makes me think I might have also had C:\Windows\System32 in the linker's additional library directories section. I say makes me think, because I had set this up with a lot of struggle about a week ago. Since then I was able to develop just fine.
Last night all I did was commit my work to a git branch, switch to another branch and merge to that branch. After the merge, all Visual Studio linker/C++ settings were wiped. So I had to recreate them, as I showed above.
That opengl32.dll is wrong. In Windows development the linker always takes .lib files. In case of static libraries the .lib contains the actual library binary. In case of DLLs the corresponding .lib informs the linker about which DLL to use and which symbols it offers.
The issue was that among the VS configuration settings that got wiped, were a couple things related to x86 vs x64 platform settings. So the project was now trying to build for 64bit linking against the 32bit dll in System32.
UUUUFFF thats a rough start.. I'm sure someone who has used reshade can help you figure this out the fact that its carrying over from pubg and screwing over tarkov now thats sux. really hope you get this sorted soon.. SOMEONE HELP A BRO OUT new player getting fucked by BE :(
curious dose 4.2.1 reshade still work with BE I'm thinking its not letting you in because its a version BE dose not like, onepeg said in a previous vid that 4.2.1 still works with BE... soooo maybe install 4.2.1 see if tarkov works with it.. then uninstall reshade and it may fix the opengl32.dll.
i had the exact same problem! i had the old version of reshade and was using it just fine until this update. i completely uninstalled reshade and there was no fix.i also uninstalled the launcher and reinstalled it.. still no. in the error it says what file was being blocked by battle eye opengl32. i have no idea what that is or if it was important but i figured i can just try and delete it since i cant play anyway... figured no harm since i can just reinstall if it messes something up. well that fixed the problem.. i just deleted that file and it launched right up man!! hope that helps. like i said i dont know if i messed up by doing that but there it is
Has anyone found a fix for this? Still having this problem on my very first startup.. A lot of people are saying its reshade but i made sure to get rid of all reshade files. It wont let me delete the opengl32.gll file since its a windows file..
its ducking unfixable tried everything above devs are just trolling the game was playing before the last update ... but tbh they will never see this so good luck ..duck this poo and duck this game .. im trying like 6 hours and even the error didnt ducking change
i fixed it ... first use reshade so the game starts the opengl32.dll from inside the game .. then go download opengl32.dll from the internet ... then get in the game files remove reshade and opengl32 and paste the new dll you downloaded
Hello, I have the same problem with the OpenGL, but I had done the same steps of fpipin but now I have the same problem, but the game executes the OpenGL on the game files. Fpipin you can paste the opengl32 that you are using?
I just bought the game and was having this issue as well, I had to do a full reset on my PC for it to finally work. I remember downloading reshade for pubg years ago and it must have still been in my files... Make sure to backup your computer before doing so.
Have the same issue since Windows Updated 3 days ago. I had never any sort of reshade or any other software that acts similar. Reinstalled the game a few times and updated all graphic drivers. Idk why this just pops up after 3 years of playing this game. Does anybody solved it except completely reset windows ?
thanks for any help
Okay so I just bought this game a few days ago and I was running into the opengl32.dll error from BattleEye from the very start. I didn't even get to play it yet before its started giving me this error. For my situation I had to do a clean install of my OS drive, which I really recommend that you have an idea of how to do such as it can either be very easy or a huge hassle. Unluckily I had to deal with a hassle, I recommend updating windows and if it is giving you an error try installing Windows Update Assistant as it not too long ago saved my butt, as I kept on getting errors when updating through the normal means of windows. So I can only assume that its some issues with a windows update that there is something that either tweaks that file or doesnt do anything at all with it so BattleEye may see that its an older file and recognize it as an issue. I tried absolutely every solution I could find related to this game, but with no success. Thus, if you are at the point of no return like I was, your solution might just be a clean install.
Certainly it is one of the dll missing file error. If you did like to fix opengl32.dll then you can try my way by rolling back the driver this really fixed the error for me on Windows 10. You need to try it it would really work.
All involved programs runs from administrator.
Reinstall dmn battle eye. (right way)
Delete Ansel (Nvidia staff for reshade)
Bytw i newer use any hacks, or Reshade for any game.
I've spend like a week for trying solve this problem.
Any of this actions dont change opengl32.dll
SO PLEASE, could you say what the problem?
1. Why EFT uses opengl32.dll?
2.Or why dmn BattleEye stop on reading opengl32.dll?
Problem in permissions or what?
I am f angry when PC stuff doesn't work as it should be.
I totally dont want to reinstall my Win.
Also i dont have any old backup windows files, so i cant use them.
But as i said there were no software updates or changes in opengl32.dll.
So i guess all this because of battle eye it's self.
Looking for help.
I spending my tyme for trying to fix Battlestate and BattleEye problems, instead of my own., like earn money, buy some stocks while its cheap because of covid-19 .

Blender 2.79b and 2.80 does not load unless I place the opengl32.dll file in the Blender directory. I've gone through all of the drivers I know to update but still no luck. Even placing the opengl32.dll file in the directory does not allow me to load previous .blend files.
The PC has two graphics cards: one built-in Intel and one NVIDIA. By default, Windows (10-pro) recognizes and enables both. However, Blender default will work only with one of them. If you happen to use the other one instead, then Blender will close on start up.
I have a two year subscription to Malwarebytes Premium. I have loaded it on other computers but one is having issues. After installing it will not run but throws a mbam.exe - Bad Image error. The error says: "OPENGL32.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or ir contains an error, etc., etc.". I tried grabbing the file from another computer and re-installing my video driver/software but no joy. I could use some help and direction on this.
