QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--disable-gpu" in Win 11 Environmental Variables.

I deleted and installed current graphics drivers without any change.

How did you attempt to enter the QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS environmental variable? A simple search in the search box for environment brings up a link to the Edit system environmental variables. After that, under system variables, enter QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS as the variable name and --disable-gpu as the variable value. Click OK a couple of times and you're done.
