This variable can be set to a list of values, which cause GDK to
disable features of the Vulkan support.

Note that on Windows, if one is running Nahimic 3 on a system with
nVidia graphics, one needs to stop the "Nahimic service" or insert
the GTK application into the Nahimic blacklist, as noted in

OpenGL features), or use GDK_DEBUG=gl-gles if you know that GLES
support is enabled for the build.
This is a known issue, as the above link indicates, and affects quite
a number of applications--sadly, since this issue lies within the
nVidia graphics driver and/or the Nahimic 3 code, we are not able
to rememdy this on the GTK side; the best bet before trying the above
workarounds is to try to update your graphics drivers and Nahimic
installation.
::: note
If you are running the Nahimic 3 service on a Windows system with
nVidia graphics, you need to perform one of the following:
- stop the "Nahimic service"
- insert the GTK application into the Nahimic blocklist, as noted in the
[nVidia forums](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/game-ready-drivers/13/297952/nahimic-and-nvidia-drivers-conflict/2334568/)
