Oculus Rift
Starting January 14, 2020, we will officially discontinue support for the Rift platform for Windows 7 and 8.1. This is in line with Microsoft's announcement that it will stop supporting Windows 7. As already announced in June 2018, the operating system Windows 10 is a minimum requirement for the use of the Rift platform. We would like to ask all users who are not currently using Windows 10 to upgrade. Windows 10 allows us to deliver the best possible performance and benefit from the latest developments. At the same time, we can comply with industry standards.
