This stupid software is saying this because my processor isnt on its list, how can i get around this highly innacurate and broken error?

@MiyaKutsuneMaru  unfortunately your GPU has dropped off the supported list.

You may be able to bypass this requirement with help from this post. The fix is the last post and I can not confirm it works. Good luck.

Your best bet is to buy Virtual Desktop, or use Steam Link or ALVR, both of which are free. None of them place artificial hardware restrictions but be aware that your 3050ti  is pretty low-end for VR.

It used to work I used to view YouTube on its side and the environment by going into quick settings and resetting the view from in there but for some reason now it doesn't work
