Hedy can now run fully on the CPU on Windows, with no GPU or Vulkan required.
Why you'd want it:
  • Your PC has no dedicated GPU, or older/unsupported graphics drivers
  • You were hitting GPU-related crashes, freezes, or VRAM errors
  • You'd rather keep the GPU free for other work
How to switch: open Settings -> Privacy & System and turn off GPU Acceleration (CPU only mode, takes effect from your next session). Settings screens are also freeze-proof on these setups.
