I contacted the World of Minecraft support team and they sent me an
email telling me how to change it from hardware to software. This is a
copy of the email:
To respecify the acceleration options, you can type in an option at the login screen at the Direct Connect url.
Simply select the input field that says "mc://" and type "redetect"
and press enter. It will give you a message that "GL redetection
enabled". Proceed with your login and it will give you a chance to tell
it to use software mode again.

Hi support I have a question that I cant seem to
find the answer to anyplace I look. My problem is that when I first
downloaded World of Minecraft on my old computer I got a popup when I first started World of Minecraft
and that was do you want to use Hardware 3D or Software 3D to run World of Minecraft
and I choose Software 3D then I got a new computer and chose Hardware 3D
and I tested it for a little bit but I realized that it was much slower
than Software 3D and wanted to change back but I cant seem to figure
out how to do that I tried deleting it from appdata and the downloaded
folder but that wouldn\'t work then I tried to see if it would give me
an option in the command: /client but it didn\'t and now I\'m stumped.
If you have the answer please tell me. Thank You so much, blakewy
