I get that error and the launcher crash if I start the Oculus launcher before the Elite one.

My simple solution - start the ED launcher first 😁

Try that, then launch Oculus & Steam afterwards.

That's not possible for me, the oculus runtime is always running in the background. Besides, I want to start elite in steamvr. But somehow it boots in oculus, even though I choose steamvr

In that case, have you tried to disable or uninstall Microsoft.NET framework and re install it with the most current .NET framework?

I think I’ve read a Frontier support response in the past that suggested to do that, but I’ve never tried it myself due to my easy/lazy solution.

Edit: knew I’d read it somewhere, FDev response on the Oculus forums -

Hi there,

I am sorry to know that you have experienced this issue! This is often related to .NET I'm afraid. You should be able to circumvent the issue by running through the following:


On C:\Program Files (x86)\Frontier\EDLaunch you should find a file named EDLaunch.exe.config.

For Steam installs, it should be here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Elite Dangerous
· Firstly, make a backup of this file by copying it to another location, such as your desktop.

· Open the EDLaunch.exe.config file with a text editor such as Notepad. You'll see something similar to:

<supportedRuntime version="v2.0.50727"/ >
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0"/ >


Switch the lines, so they look like this:

<supportedRuntime version="v4.0"/ >
<supportedRuntime version="v2.0.50727"/ >

Once you have done this, save the file and attempt to start up the launcher. If it's still not working you can just replace the file with the backup you created.

If you continue to have problems, please submit a ticket so that we can investigate further.

Thanks,
