Bug Report: No headset window on taskbar (Freetrack)
TheRealMesteven opened this issue · comments
First time running it, it ran as expected and was fully functional. Second day, I boot it up and I get the headset window but it doesnt appear on the taskbar and as soon as I click or interact with anything the window disappears into the void.
With the bug, trying to get it to display on another monitor briefly displays it on the other monitor before immediately closing the window.
I checked, it looks like Valve updated SteamVR and the drivers stopped working again, too bad. There are no ideas yet on how to fix this.
As a temporary solution, you can use an old version of SteamVR.
- Uninstall the current SteamVR.
- Unzip this file to C:\Program Files\SteamVR.
- Run "vrstartup.exe".
Another temporary solution: ValveSoftware/openvr#1780 (comment)
restarting the VRCompositor seems to help and the window won't vanish afterwards!
PS C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SteamVR\bin\win64> get-process vrcompositor | stop-process -Force;.\vrcompositor.exe
