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.

    Eh, can probably get around that in command line. But still, most people don’t know that, so they’ll assume their shit is outdated, and… back to e-waste

      The thing businesses want the most is support, and with Windows 10 being EOL in 2025 and Windows 11 requiring a TPM 2.0 to be officially supported, if they encounter a large-scale issue and they’re running an unsupported configuration they’ll get a tough luck response from Microsoft Support.
