Announcing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26052 (Canary and Dev Channels)

UPDATE 2/9: Added an important known issue for Dev Drive users. Please see the known issues below. Hello Windows Insiders, today we are releasing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26052 to the Canary

Windows MR and HP Reverb VR headsets to lose all functionality in Windows 11 24H2, so don’t update if you use those headsets.

I find it despicable that support for working hardware can be just abandoned after only a few years, and at least a basic driver should be released (ideally open source) if not the full WMR package, which few cared about anyway.

I’m hoping that Monado takes off at least as I only used Windows begrudgingly anyway.

    Most of these also want to lock down their VR as a platform, instead of being ubiquitous hardware like a monitor, and I think lack of standardization is gonna hurt them in the long run by narrowing their audience.

    This. This is what I believe is holding back this tech more than anything else. Even pricing. Just make the hardware and let people play with it however they want, just like they could when PCs first became a thing.
