Google Earth stops working with WebGL after enabling RenderDoc

[Xarles-Lovell]

I can normally use Google Earth's 3D view, but as soon as I enable RenderDoc for capture, Chrome shows "Your browser doesn't support WebGL". I've already: enabled hardware acceleration in Chrome, and set "Override software rendering list" to Enabled. They still don't work. How can I fix this?

I also have this, enabling all those as well as webGL extensions in flags does nothing. Something about the startup commands for both edge and chrome that injects renderdoc is preventing google chrome and edge from actually enabling 3d mode on either earth or Maps

--EDIT: I think i solved it! when setting the command parameters in chromes arguments, "Chromium recently (2025-06-05) changed the name of the parameter --disable_direct_composition to --disable-direct-composition ​ (note: hyphens instead of underscores), the usual instructions on the net (for example https://edw.is/renderdoc-webgl/) do not work anymore."

so using hyphens instead of underscores fixed this for me
