Since today's driver update: oculus link, quest2; the Microsoft flight simulator 2020 crashed to the desktop during the loading of the game (some 70- 80% and the crash occurs).
I uninstalled the Oculus Quest link software and the simulator loads OK.
After the full uninstall and a fresh install (after a new download of the installer), the simulator crashed to the desktop again.
After uninstalling the Oculus link's software, the simulator is back to load OK; therefore, the faulty software is the Oculus one.
Windows 11 with all drivers updated and also all updates of Windows 11 applied.
Meanwhile, I will try with "virtual desktop" instead of Oculus, but I have better results with Oculus, therefore I want to return to that method if it is possible.
Thanks in advance for any update on this issue (first time in almost 2 years of using Quest2 with Oculus software)
Indeed, it is a bug introduced by meta in v68 that occurs WITH openxrtoolkit. It will be fixed only in v69, therefore we have 2 options: 1) Use Oculus software without openxrtoolkit (there will be fps issues) 2) use another connection method like virtual desktop that, for me, with the quest2, hast lower resolution than with Oculus Soft and supersampling.

I also found this to be true, been troubleshooting all day and came to the same conclusion. This needs to be fixed, many people play the game with Oculus Link....
I can also confirm that it crashes since todays Meta update with Quest 3. It happens at the end of the MSFS loading screen. When I stop Oculus Services via Debug Tool it doesn't crash. But when starting Oculus services again and trying to get to VR in MSFS, MSFS crashes again.

I got the non-beta v68 update yesterday on my meta link pc app and QPro headset. All’s working well with my official link cable with all my flight sims, including msfs2020. So, I’m not really sure why some are having issues? I no longer use the unsupported addon OpenXR Toolkit, but I understand some have found problems using this and they solved this by disabling it.
When I got the v68 pc app update I did notice it reset my device graphics settings back to default and I needed to redo those. Also needed to reinstall oculus drivers (oculus support folder drivers).
Anyway, I hope you’re able to sort this out ok. Good luck mates and cheers.

The accepted solution doesnt work. unistalled the openxrtoolkit and it still crashes. cant use virtual desktop/wirelss because bandwidth is too low. If i dsiable the oculus service msfs loads properly. please advise?

While disabling/uninstalling OpenXR Toolkit is currently more of a v68 workaround, not a solution, doing so together with enabling meta link pc app settings/general tab oculus as OpenXR default runtime should work with any OpenXR apps imho. I don't have any problems loading msfs2020 with oculus runtime sevices disabled, like when I'm using my Vive Pro1 headset (using SteamVR as OpenXR default) and/or with my monitor in 2D mode.
If you are still having this issue with OpenXR Toolkit uninstalled then I suggest you contact Meta support including your log file and see if they can identify what's causing this.
