Am I the only one having my MSFS2024 SU5 Beta 1.7.24.0 "modified" yesterday via Microsoft Store. I didn't click on "Verify and Repair". I'm just regularly "Check for Updates" from the Microsoft Store.

Certainly after I (re)switch to DLSS v310.6 ? Surprise to see this morning my MSFS2024 back to DLSS 310.1.

Oh dear just read the VR click spots are still broken in the latest SU5 beta versions preventing users from removing chocks and covers on various aircraft, been an issue since February 🙄

Oh. Just test. It works on my 1.7.24.0. The only click that doesn't work is the "Configure" when selection the plane. I read that it could be related - for the SU5 Beta - to the Skip "Ready to fly" button" (may my Flow Pro). Didn't investigate much as the configure button works when using an Xbox controler (instead of the mouse click).

Of all the VR bugs they've allowed to knowingly make it to a SU final release...This one might be the most egregious. 

It effects more than just chocks and covers.  In many aircraft you can't interact with things in the cockpit either.   It really needs to be addressed or VR is going to lose users.

They've shown incredible ignorance towards VR issues in the past, so it wouldn't suprise me in the slightest if this makes it to final release, we'll see.
