Rift 1.40 Release Rolling Out Now

Dash
  • We've added a new button to the Dash belt to select and view individual Virtual Desktop panels.
  • We've improved stability and performance of Virtual Desktop. Please make sure your version of Windows 10 is up to date to take advantage of these improvements.

Guardian

We’ve made performance improvements and feature updates to improve your experience while interacting with Guardian. These updates include:

  • Ability to clear your Guardian boundary history from your Guardian settings menu.
  • Opportunity to confirm your Guardian boundaries are accurate when you first put on your headset.
  • Removed the need to indicate what direction is forward when setting up Guardian.

Store
  • Updated the design and improved performance and load times for the Oculus Store.

Home
  • You can now collect all of your Oculus Home rewards at once with the new Collect All button. (Note: this feature is rolling out slowly to everyone within 1.40. Thanks for your patience!)

Fixes
  • Fixed an issue where Touch controllers could lose tracking during fast movements with Rift.
  • Removed warning that USB drivers needed to be updated when drivers were already up to date.

As always, if you encounter any issues with this software release, please be sure to report them using the Help Center > Provide Feedback option within the Oculus desktop software. If you have any feature requests or suggestions to make the Oculus software even better, please head over to our UserVoice page to share your feedback. Thanks for your continued help!

    My mic still goes off after a short time and even the Oculus Support dont find a solution, send me so many things i had to try already but nothing worked.

    So seems the Rift S got a lot of problems and the support tried to tell me already that the mic problem would be no hardware issue...ok :D

    Nonsense. I use and sell ESET at my workplace and it has never ever interfered with Rift. You must have had a custom rule set.

    Why does the Oculus force everyone to switch to the extreme 1903 version of win, which shows itself much worse in games than previous versions, for example 1607?
    in 1607 last 1.40 works with issue (restarting home after removing and re-putting the helmet on the head in a few minutes)
    Microsoft pays for such updates ??? (((
    It would be better to add support for win 7, as it is for CV1 !!!
