Sometimes installed games are shown as not installed!

Quite a weird bug - I've noticed it several times. Sometimes an installed game is detected as not installed in Oculus Home. It seems to happen randomly - if I reboot my PC the game typically appears as installed again. I'm using the latest Oculus Rift software (February 26th). Maybe I have too many apps and games installed? Still I only got 67 games and apps. I don't think there's anything wrong with my hardware. Just now I lost Obduction - rebooted and got Obduction back, but lost Kin and Chronos... Sigh...  I'm using Samsung NVMe SSD for the OS and a 3 TB disk for the Oculus games (divided into 6 x 500GB). Still I don't think this is a hardware problem, my disks seem to work perfectly. My NVMe is extremely fast though (3000MB/s transfer) - Win10 boots in about 1 second.

The Oculus app has been updated a few times since I wrote the first post in this thread - I'm happy to write that I've had none of my installed games being shown as not installed for the past 2 or 3 weeks.

Oh well, the problem is still there - just started up, and Elite Dangerous is not installed. Rebooted the PC, now - magically - Elite is installed - but now Ocean Rift seems to be uninstalled. And so on. 
Clearly something isn't working correctly - again Win10 boots in about 1 second due to Samsung 960 NVMe EVO drive - but a lot of other things than a too fast drive may of course cause this error.

Have you tried running repair using the Oculus setup exe sounds like something is afoot Make sure to disable your antivirus during the installation?

Thanks - I'll give it a try. Maybe I should mention that this error only happens to maybe 2 out of my 70 Rift games/apps, maybe randomly, so I rarely notice it unless I check for the error. I have many other games for example Steam games, but this error only happens to Rift games. This thread was primarily to check if anyone else is experiencing similar issues.
