Answer 1

Same to me. Nothing helps and nobody at all. I tried to delete or replace 'preferences' folder as advised, but is does not help, and after I can find new preferences folder in same place again. I tried betas like SteamVR beta or xplane beta, does not help. All drivers are new, everything reinstalled. Support be like lablabla as always in Steam and maybe same here, still looking for solution.
