Developer Mode Slider disabled

Dear Meta Team

I have been trying to enable developer mode on my meta quest 3 over my meta horizon app. I never got passed the slider which is disabled for some reason. I have a verified developer account with an organisation. I tried to reinstall, reboot the app multiple times, reboot and reset the HMD to factory settings multiple times. What else can I try to resolve this error in your system?

@Driller98, do you have this issue with the device owner account or the second account? I have had this problem since v74 OS, when I tried to add a second account. I thought that the second account must be a developer, too, but it is not needed. It is enough that the primary account (device owner) is a developer to be able to turn this switch on. Additional accounts can install sideloaded apps without the developer function enabled. I did it both on Q3 and Q3S with v76 update installed.

If you have this problem with your main (device owner) account, then please go here https://developers.meta.com/horizon/manage/verify/ and make sure that you add either two-factor authentication or a credit card. This is a must-have when turning on Developer Mode on the device.
