I clicked something in the options and pretty much the game crashed. After that I tried to open it and it said that Osu! was unable to obtain a graphics context.if this is the first time you've seen this,please try restarting your PC.
If this is a fresh install,you may be missing graphics drivers.

Any help on how to solve this?

What version of the game are you running? what GPU do you have?

I can't see the version of the game but I know I had the latest version that had come out. (might sound stupid i know)

I have an NVIDIA GFX 1060 Graphics Card.

I've tried re-downloading the game but still doesn't work. this is what appears when I click reveal error

Are you Graphics drivers properly installed and updated?

Open your osu folder and open repair osu!
and click the reset settings button.
should fix it since u said u clicked something in settings that u dont remember what was.

Yes they are. I just went to the NVIDIA App and installed an update. Still didn't work.

Did and same error happpened. DOes this mean that I won't be able to play osu! anymore?

Definitely restart your computer if you haven't already, as the error message suggests. Do you have an integrated GPU in your computer too? Make sure you are running osu! with the correct GPU if you do. Your 1060 should be more than enough to run the game.

Download GLView, save and post the GL report it generates here.

Try using Display Driver Uninstaller to uninstall whatever drivers you have currently, and then download the latest drivers for your card directly from NVIDIA's website. The installer should also give you an option to perform a "clean install", choose that. You may need to click on custom install to see it.

If you used DDU before installing new drivers, I think you may be forced to restart after you've installed new drivers. If you aren't however, restart your computer again.

Hi,
Check in your file named : osu!.[Name of your computer or user] and check if the parameter "CompatibilityContext" is on 0. If it isn't, set it to 0 et save the file. Then restart osu! and see if it works.

I remember what I clicked now! I went on the graphics settings and I was messing with the settings on osu! a little bit. I had clicked the Compatibility Setting! I found this out because I went on my old laptop and guess which setting I pressed and as soon as I clicked Compatibility Mode the app closed up and didn't open up again.

I found the folder but where exactly do I find this parameter at?

Edit: Problem Solved. Don't need anymore help. Followed Zulsramno's instructions and I was able to open osu! back again. Thank you so much!

Dang, I am having the same issue rn too with the parameter:

Did you read the other posts in this thread?

You should also be able to run the game with or without compatibility mode if you are on a 1060, which is why dealing with your drivers is a better idea than toggling compatibility mode.
