Run Ultimaker Cura in RDP session

When trying to run Ultimaker Cura in a RDP session one is probably confronted with a message like this

1
Could not probe OpenGL. This program requires OpenGL 2.0 or higher. Please check your video card drivers.

complaining about missing OpenGL support. This can be easily solved by placing the OpenGL software rendering library in the folder of the Cura executable, usually C:\Program Files\Ultimaker Cura\. Builds for opengl32sw.dll are available from: https://download.qt.io/development_releases/prebuilt/llvmpipe/windows/

Further, it’s important to rename the file to opengl32.dll.
