Quest 2 NOT Seen As a Rift in Chrome

Hi All,

I have an app in Chrome (not my app) with which I can use the immersive mode - works fine with the Rift and Rift S.  When I am using a Quest 2 with Link cable, I get the the error "Error initialising device config... WebXR session mode unsupported"

I thought the Quest 2 would be seen by Chrome as a Rift / Rift S?  Am I wrong?

Many thanks.

    Hi @Hiro_Protag0nist

    I cannot replicate this issue - webxr with Chrome with Quest 2 works the same as Rift or Rift S in my testing.

    Is your Quest 2 otherwise working correctly with Oculus Link. i.e. can you access other PC content on your Quest 2?

    Thanks,
    John

    Hi John,

    This was happening because the "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Khronos\OpenXR\1" registry value was changing from C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-runtime\oculus_openxr_64.json
    to
    C:\\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MixedRealityRuntime.json
    every time I plugged in and used my Odyssey+ (I use a few headsets).

    Thanks for your help.
    Big PC, all the headsets, now using Quest 3
