When SOLIDWORKS is first installed, the Real View Graphic is turned on by default

Is there a way to turn it off by default during/after the installation without needing the user to turn it off manually?

Maybe some registry edit?

Edit your templates and turn it off inside your template. I believe the setting is file dependant.

Edit: NVM after testing it out myself, it is a user setting, so if someone activates it, it is on until the user turns it off, and vice versa. Perhaps have a default settings file with it turned off inside it...?

We turn RealView off with these registry settings:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SolidWorks\SOLIDWORKS 2021\Performance]
"Saved OGL Settings"=dword:00000035
"OGL Display Shaders"=dword:00000000

I can't get it set in a settings file. "RealView" is not in the settings except for "PDF RealView Graphics".
