Hello, because these last sessions and been hibernating, today when starting the pc tiled it does not start, crash occurs.  
I have reinstalled the latest version 1.4.3 but it did not solve anything, I restarted the computer and it did not work.  
Any advice?.  
I don’t have antivirus

This solved the problem.  
So what happened to my open gl?

I have re-enabled openGL from the “interface” tab in tiled, now it works again and tiled starts fine.  
What happened?

Hmm, I have no idea how it could be that OpenGL works after disabling and then re-enabling it, but I would advice you to just leave it off if it’s causing issues. There is virtually no benefit to using hardware accelerated rendering with the current backend.
