Thank you, thank you.
I could be wrong, but I reckon this will be the most liked improvement of all time.

Actually, I just realized a fantastic use for this. I can now keep my currently played games on my M.2 Drive and when I'm done move them into cold storage to my Old School HDD. Genius.

Yep that was one of my first thoughts as well. Nice addition!

Did they fix the issue with nvidia drivers? Is it still recommended to stay on the older drivers?

For some reason, my desktop won't work in oculus dash. It only shows my background pic without any of the applications I've installed. Also whenever I click on the desktop screen in oculus dash my computer crashes. None of the updates have fixed this and I haven't seen anyone else with this issue.

How much of the Dash interface can be utilized with just the Xbox controller? I just don't want to use Touch for various reasons. I hate to just hang on to the old Classic.

Move location of installed apps works great, very quick and easy.
Nice feature, thanks for adding this!

I think it may have!
I am on driver 390.77.
I was having the issue where when I would close Oculus Home, the headset would not release ( light would stay white), and then upon putting on again would be no display in headset. Would take a restart of Oculus runtime, or reboot of PC to get it back proper.

So far this morning, I have put on the headset, removed it, closed Oculus Home, about 10 times. Each time the headset properly released, and then upon putting back on would start up again as it should.

If it stays this way, great job on getting this one Oculus! The issue was happening to me about every time I would close Oculus Home, now it appears to all be working as it should through 10 cycles. I am fairly positive at least this issue for me is resolved in 1.24.
I will post back in this thread if it does rear it's ugly head again, but at this point I am doubtful it will.
