Oculus apps wont download

Let's take a look at a few potential fixes that can get you back to VR gaming on your Go. If you've successfully downloaded and installed a game or experience from the Oculus Store and it doesn't want to launch on your Go, start off by restarting the headset. Your Oculus Go will power cycle and you can then attempt again to launch a game or experience that's already been downloaded and installed. Attempting to install a game from inside the headset might not work, but you can always try installing by using the Oculus app on your phone.

The app and the headset remain synced, so anything you do on either device will show up on the other. If the phone app isn't working properly either, you can always try reinstalling it for better results. Download the Oculus app at Google Play. Some users have found that downloading multiple games and experiences at once can cause a bit of confusion for the system. If you are indeed queueing up a bunch of downloads, try going one by one to see if there is any difference.

Power management kind of sucks right now on the Go, and you've probably noticed that it will turn off almost immediately if you remove it from your head. This remains true when games and experiences are downloading, and many people have had problems attempting to restart a download when the headset wakes back up. While downloading, you'll want to either keep the headset on your head or place a piece of tape over the built-in sensor to keep the headset from sleeping.

If you are downloading and the headset powers down, you might have to perform a complete factory reset to get the specific app onto your Oculus Go. Unfortunately, it seems that a factory reset is often necessary if a game or experience gets stuck.

Oculus Software won't install. TheForbinProjec Level 3. I'm on windows Please help. All forum topics Previous Topic Next Topic. PaladinII Level 2. I am having the same problem. I did not use Oculus for a couple of months. When I tried it told me I needed update. Downloaded the patch, now when launched it goes into the endless load wheel. Ok so I got it working after the 3rd install. After letting it sit overnight after the installation finished it appears to be working now.

Just have to be patient with it I suppose Try the reset of the network in win It works for me. The only thing that worked for me was to follow StreetBlazer's fix - I uninstalled the Oculus app and then reinstalled and designated that future apps should be installed on a different drive other than my main c: drive where the main Oculus app was installed.
