Disable shaders in the Settings menu. The shaders doesnt work for Windows and some old GPUs.

Open Minetest go to "Settings" tab in the main menu and disable "Shaders".

IIRC if I have OpenGL selected on my Windows machine, shaders appear to work fine. Is it that they're failing asymptomatically?

my turn :D i don't understand, do they work or not because when i launch game with shaders it looks exactly like without them.

The shaders are only supported by OpenGL as they are GLSL shaders, someone will need to rewrite them in HLSL for them to work with Direct3D
