If you’re having trouble running AWS Cloud Quest on Microsoft Edge with your RTX 5080 graphics card and the latest drivers, you’re not alone. Some users have noticed that certain graphics or functionality issues can pop up when using specific browser and hardware combinations. The good news is that there is a simple fix that can help improve your experience.
One effective solution is to enable WebGL Draft Extensions in your Edge browser’s experimental settings. WebGL is crucial for rendering graphics in cloud-based services like AWS Cloud Quest, and turning on these extensions can often solve rendering problems or make labs more accessible.
To do this, follow these steps:
- Open Microsoft Edge and type
edge://flags/into the address bar. - Search for “WebGL Draft Extensions.”
- Enable this feature.
- Restart your browser to apply the changes.
Many users have also found that switching to a different browser, such as Google Chrome, can help if issues persist. Chrome tends to have broader support for WebGL features and might bypass some browser-specific problems encountered in Edge.
If you’re working through tasks in the Generative AI Practitioner path and face difficulties in creating enterprise knowledge assistants, enabling WebGL support generally resolves these glitches. If problems continue, trying Chrome may give you a smoother experience.
These steps have helped others successfully complete AWS Cloud Quest labs when browser or rendering issues stand in the way. Keep in mind, browser settings can often be a quick fix to technical issues, so trying this method might save you a lot of frustration.
Sources for more tips and troubleshooting are available on AWS documentation and community forums if you need additional help.
