The "no headset connected" error usually means SteamVR is not running.
Did you purchase MSFS2024 through Steam? If so, you'll need to open Steam on your PC and then go to the Steam Store and find and download SteamVR (it's free). After establishing a connection to your PC using Horizon Link (or SteamLink), run Steam (if it isn't already open on your PC), then open SteamVR (if using SteamLink, then Steam and SteamVR should open automatically when you establish a connection to the PC), then run MSFS2024, then switch it to VR mode (CTRL+TAB).
If you get stuck, feel free to ask questions here.
Thanks for the reply. My MSFS is the XBOX version.
I have tested both MSFS2024 and X-PLANE 12 and get the same error.
Is there something else I need to do to make the headset visible to them?
I will go back to the Facebook tutorials and check that I have followed everything correctly.
For interest, the item was bought used. Is it possible it could be faulty, and is there any check I can run to ensure? Seller stated in full working order.
The XBOX gamepass version also needs SteamVR, so you still have to make sure you have SteamVR installed and then run it before launching the game.
