Update your graphics driver (NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel) directly from the manufacturer’s website – do not rely on Windows Update.

Based on user reports and Corel’s support forums, the "Error code 126" for vgcore in CorelDRAW 2022 is typically triggered by one of the following:

: CorelDRAW relies on Microsoft Visual C++ components; if these are missing or outdated, the VGCore.dll library cannot initialize. Antivirus Interference : Security software may quarantine or delete VGCore.dll or related files (like CISCVC.dll ), misidentifying them as threats. Corrupted Installation

A faulty GPU driver can cause the vgcore module to fail during initialization of the OpenGL or GDI+ renderer.

Note: Some users have reported success by disabling "Real-time protection" momentarily while launching CorelDRAW for the first time after installation, and then re-enabling it.
