Dazers Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Hello, Whenever I try to install the Vive Desktop Software, it just closes without any errors. Whenever I click on Install right after choosing my folder location, the installer just closes without any warning. My Steam software is detected and I changed the folder to install the Vive Software to many different places. I even uninstalled the Vive USB driver via SteamVR. I deleted the temporary folder of the Vive Software Installer and tried to reinstall but it just doesn't work. I'm out of idea on how to get the app installed to access my Viveport Apps/Games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockjaw Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Sorry you're having these problems, . I'll have to pass on these details to the engineering team, so can you give me a few more details? - Version of Windows - Did you try installing to the default folder? Is the installer closing even if you do this? - Obvious question, but I have to ask: did you restart your PC before trying again? Send me a PM if you prefer to discuss this there. Thanks.

Dazers Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 Hello, - I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - I did install to the default folder the first time and it did close - I did restart my computer after the first failed install and did it twice so far. Thank you for the quick reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockjaw Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 As I don't want you messing around any further on my advice, I'm going to have to defer to our support team on this one who can help you further. If you're seeing this right after a clean reboot, I'd expect there's something 'stuck' from the install process that's causing a repeat failure. Reach out to support here. Apologies again for the issues, . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedHorse Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Windows 7 Home is not a nice OS for gamers. You should consider upgrading your OS to Windows 7 Pro 64 bit or Windows 8.1 64bit or higher, you should refrain from using Home and Starter OS as it's intended for basic computer usage.

Dreamager Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Is this the same problem you are having? I took a video of mine, and want to know if it's just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
