Help please. MSFS will not run in VR "No Headset Detected"

Featured Replies

MSFS used to run on my Oculus Quest 2. Now it will not. When initializing VR (Control Tab) it says "No headset detected".

I post image that the oculus app shows the Quest 2 is ACTIVE and CONNECTED.

I also post what it says in the registry key for active runtime.

What else could possibly be wrong that MSFS works fine in 2D but won't open in VR?

Well, belated thanks. Because doing that and now VR works again.

BTW, it sure looks like performance fps has increased since the last update, or maybe Oculus just has new drivers. It flies much better now.

Before using VR in Flight Simulator with an Oculus headset, the computer needs to know the location of the OpenXR runtime. Please follow the steps below to set this location in the registry:

  1. In the type here to search bar, next to the Start menu, type "Run" and hit Enter.
  2. In the Run window, type in “regedit” (without quotations) and hit Enter. This will launch the Registry Editor.
  3. Locate the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Khronos\OpenXR\1
  4. For ActiveRuntime change its value to the one that matches your platform (NOTE: default path is C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-runtime\oculus_openxr_64.json)
  5. Close the Registry Editor. You are now ready to enter VR with your Oculus headset.

With regards to #4. What am I looking for value wise and change to what?
