About Meta XR Simulator not showing up

Hello everyone, has anyone tried Meta XR Simulator successfully?

I am a unity beginner. Everything I did was according to the official documentation, and although the program does not report errors, it also does not give me the interface presented in its documentation. I updated Oculus Integration to v50.0 and it didn't help.
Does anyone have the same problem as me? I look forward to your answer. Thank you!

    I had this problem too until I ticked the option for "Oculus" in Edit > Project Settings > XR Plug-in Management > Windows, Mac, Linux

      Were you ever able to resolve this? I have a similar problem.

                Same error, now solved!!!

                Meta XR Simulator -> activate actually change the default OpenXR Runtime in regedit table. you can read the script at \Library\PackageCache\com.meta.xr.simulator@62.0.0\MetaXRSimulator\activate_simulator source code.

                But, sometimes it just fails to change the regedit table !!!

                So, I change regedit table manually !!! like image below, it just works!!!

                Remember, backup the original ActivateRuntime value and change it back when you do not use simulator, but use Meta Quest device or steam VR maybe.
