SteamVR / Virtual Desktop on Quest is Broken Solution

For those with a Quest 1/2/pro wanting to use Virtual Desktop or SteamVR api’s

Go to:
- Engine/Binaries/ThirdParty/Oculus
Then delete or rename the DLL file. Steam will then start the game in OpenXR if you have that set in SteamVR settings.
Pick a binding of your liking “Picked the one with the anime avatar” and start the game.
At the start of the game the icons will be Vive Wands “you want this!” load into the game and edit your bindings.
In the top right hit options and choose compatibility mode vive.

Now you can run, grab and do everything you want in the game. However before exiting or before starting the game again be sure to turn off the compatibility mode or you grips wont work the next time you start it. If you see the Vive Wands on start you are good, do as before and turn on compatibility.

This is a absolutely insane workaround, until there is a better community solution.
