PSA: OpenXR services/devices aren't exactly 'hot-swappable'.

I was bouncing back and forth between SteamVR and WMR headsets while testing functionality and managed to hard lock the entire system (Ctrl+Alt+Del wouldn’t even respond).

This occurred as I had powered off the Vive and powered on the G2 (WMR) without first closing SteamVR.

When the computer finally came back, I was greeted with the below warning, and a total editor shutdown.

Ouch! Thanks for the info (not that it affects me…yet).

I hope you filed a bug report with relevant parties (Steam, HP, OpenXR).

Not yet as I haven’t tried to replicate the lockup yet. Certainly something I’ll have to spin up a clean project to do so as I don’t wanna risk corruption of data.
