Oculus Software won't start

STREETBLAZER
Explorer
I've reinstalled it twice, disabled antivirus, and I've downloaded the patch. It appears to download and even run the installation fine, but every time I try to run the program itself, a small, black window with the oculus logo appears with a load wheel that persists endlessly.  And to clarify, this does not appear to be the wide spread "Can't Reach Oculus Runtime Service" bug. I'm on windows 10.

Please help

I got as far as reinstall windows 10 from scratch. And I still can't use the Oculus app, stuck in loading right after the installation of it.

Edit:nevermind... I cleaned up a few folders, set up the correct authorization for the camera in win 10, and it worked for me.
