    I own subnautica in the xbox launcher/windows store because I bought it digitally on xbox a couple years ago, and it transfers over. I think a while ago I was playing on my vr headset and launched the game, but only for a couple minutes. Lately I've wanted to play again, but when I open the game it launches in VR mode automatically, and without connecting my headset, after a couple seconds it just redirects me to the steamvr setup screen. How can I launch the game in desktop mode to play normally? All the tutorials I see are for steam and epic games only.

    I have tried reinstalling the game, and shutting down ever oculus-related process from the details tab in task manager. In steam you have the option to click on launch in desktop mode and steam vr, and in epic agames I believe you can type something like "-vrmode none" somewhere to fix it. But I have no idea how to fix it for the xbox launcher.

    :)

    Make sure Windows is up to date
    1. Press the Start button on the taskbar, type settings, and then select Settings.
    2. On Windows 10, select Update & Security. On Windows 11, select Windows Update.
    3. On the Windows Update page, select Check for updates to see if any updates are available for your device.
    4. Once the updates have downloaded, select Install now to start the installation.
    5. Following installation, we recommend that you restart your device so that the latest updates can take effect.
    For more info, go to:

    Windows Update

    Update your Windows and device driversFor the best game performance, make sure your system’s video card drivers (or display adapter drivers) are up to date. Drivers are available on the support website for your computer manufacturer, or if your computer system is custom built, on the video card manufacturer’s support website. Updating video card drivers can resolve game crashes, improve frame rates, and improve overall game performance.

    Make sure both the Xbox and Gaming Services apps are up to date
    1. Press the Start button on the taskbar, type store, and open the Microsoft Store app.
    2. Select Library.
    3. Under Updates & downloads, check if there are any updates available for the Xbox app or Gaming Services app. If an update is available, select Update.

    Make sure you’re signed in to the Xbox app and the Store with the same accountWhen you open the Xbox app on your device, be sure you sign in to the app using your own Xbox account. You may also need to be signed in to the Store (xbox.com) in order to play a purchased game.

    To make sure your permissions for the game can be validated, be sure to sign in to both the Store and the Xbox app using the same account that was used to purchase the game.

    For help with signing in, go to:

    Sign in to Xbox

    Good evening

    Verify your settings: Make sure that your Oculus Quest 2 and AirLink settings are properly configured. Check if there are any specific settings related to on-screen keyboards or text input that need to be enabled.

    Check for updates: Ensure that both Minecraft Bedrock and the Oculus Quest 2 firmware are up to date. Sometimes, software updates can introduce new features or fix existing issues.

    Try alternative methods: In some VR applications, instead of an on-screen keyboard, you can use physical keyboards connected to your PC or a mobile companion app to input text. Check if Minecraft Bedrock VR supports any alternative input methods.

    Use a virtual desktop: If none of the above options work, consider using a virtual desktop application like Virtual Desktop or Oculus Link to connect your Oculus Quest 2 to your PC. This method might provide better compatibility and access to an on-screen keyboard.

    How do I sign into Questcraft on Oculus Quest 2?

    Hi Med.555, my name is Adam.

    I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with your Oculus Quest 2.

    1. Make sure to charge the headset. If the headset has no charge, you’ll see nothing but a black screen. Plug the headset into a compatible USB charger and leave it alone for a while. If it doesn’t seem to be charging, try a different charger, or make sure you’re using a compatible charger. The Oculus charger outputs 2A, so using a lower amperage charger will result in a longer charge time.

    2. Try opening the Oculus menu. While faced with a black screen, try pressing the menu button on your left controller and the Oculus button on the right controller. If this gives you access to the menu, try opening an app to see if that fixes the black screen problem.

    3. Check the Oculus app. Load up the Oculus app on your phone and log in if it doesn’t log in automatically. Check to see if the app sees your headset, and try launching a game from the app. After launching the game, put your headset on and check to see if the black screen problem has been corrected.

    4.Leave the headset on and plugged in. If you have tried charging the headset and still see nothing but a black screen, and you’re sure you’re using a compatible charger, leave it alone for at least 30 minutes. If the headset is attempting to update, then leaving it alone while plugged into power may allow it to finish the update and return to regular operation.

    I hope this helps!
    Adam.
