You can disable it for development. Check the documentation.
Yeah, that's right. Section 7.2 of the developer guide says that you have to create a registry key in Windows. The doc says:
For Windows, the following key must be added if the Windows OS is 32-bit:
HKEY LOCAL MACHINE\Software\Oculus VR, LLC\LibOVR\HSWToggleEnabled
If the Windows OS is 64-bit, then the path will be slightly different:
HKEY LOCAL MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Oculus VR, LLC\LibOVR\HSWToggleEnabled
Notice that the LibOVR key (something like a folder, in regedit) doesn't exist, so you have to create it. Similarly, the HSWToggleEnabled should be created as a DWORD (32 bit) or QWORD (64 bit) value and must be set to a value of 1.
After all this, you have only enabled a checkbox inside the Rift Configuration Utility. So open the Configuration Utility, click on "Advanced..." and you should see a new checkbox whose label is "Disable Health and Safety Warning", enable it and click "I Agree" on the window that will pop up. Now you have disabled the Warning for your pc.
I've read in this forum that this looooong procedure still doesn't work for older demos or for some UDK stuff, but I've not tried them, so I do not know what to say about that.

I would like to completely disable it. It is hard to explain to a client why Oculus comes up with such a terrible looking warning dialog every time. It completely breaks the design of the UI we have.
Regarding your clients you can:
- Provide an installer that makes this procedure along with your program installation;
- Provide an instruction file about how to disable it (they can't be n00bs, anyway);
- Provide an installation service where you go to their home/factory/whatever and disable the warning;
- Stop programming on Oculus and become a famous rockstar :)
Hope this helps :)
