I finally got my Rift S working but after a Windows Visual C+ update (KB2565063) it keeps giving me this error loop. I'm not 100% sure if that update is causing it but when I removed it before it was working fine. It says Rift S is connected and active but Oculus needs to restart again. So I restart, it first says not connected then connected and active but needs to restart. The thing is Windows forces me to install this update and I can't find it anymore to uninstall. Can anyone help with this?
I got a usb to usb-c adapter, rebooted my PC and the Oculus software and it worked. I'll see how long it stays this way. The fact that this is still a problem for people after several months makes me really lose confidence in Oculus.
