failed to initialize libOVR

Rift CV1 headset arrived today. I set it up using the standard process, games work, etc. 
Now trying to get development environment working.
I Downloaded Oculus PC SDK for Windows 1.4.0, unzipped, open samples, trying to run OculusRoomTiny (GL) I get error message "failed to initialize LibOVR". Similar error with OculusWorldDemo

Any suggestions? Have googled extensively, no luck so far...

- Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition,  v14.0.25123.00 Update 2
- Windows 10 SDK version 10.0.10586.0
- Oculus Home is running

  • Solution was to reboot computer, which I had not done since installing Oculus Home. Whoops. 
  • I have similar error DK1, sdk/runtime 0.8.0.0.  It appears while starting in VS only. I think it something with paths, but don't know how to fix it.
