VR Toolbox: 360 Desktop

I have been using VR Toolbox increasingly over the last few months. I bought a Vive, specifically so that I could have a VR monitor over a conventional monitor. Because of VR Toolbox, formally called, VR Light, my expecations are being exceeded. I tried them all, including Virtual Desktop. I found VR Toolbox to provide a number of advantages, above and beyond my basic need. First and foremost, I am visually impaired. Large monitors don't really work for me any more, as I must use fix-focus glasses. VR Toolbox renders a clear display at any size and position that suits me. And the developer is SO helpful. When he heard from me and understood that I have low-vision issues, including a problem with light sensitivity, he turned around and added post-processing features. So, now I can filter out the light that harms my eyes (you can call it a customizable nigh-mode that does not require Flux. Another really cool thing about this product is that it allows me to virtually overlap m...

EDIT TL:DR the neam of this app and the new oculus store ad and picture for this is misleading customers If you want to use ONLY the web in mutiple sreens this is for you. HOWEVER, if you want to do mutiple things at once dont buy this it is a sham. FOR EXAMPLE: play a movie and watch a game/// use word and excel at the same time/// playing 2 accounts on runescape/// using itunes while running a game/ using itunes while running word or excel THESE DONT WORK I tried to play a movie at the same time as having forza going and they both showed the movie, i clicked on forza so i could see it and both sreens showed forza instead of the movie. i told the devs and they said they never claimed that worked and the other said i was using it wrong and told me how to make it work. BUT it didnt fix it all they told me how to do was open a new window which the tutorial thoroughly covered. (read the comments the devs commented because i didnt recomend their app) I got this app to in essence have ...

I've got over 100 hours using this and I should have left a review a [i]long[/i] time ago! This is great! Most software like this settles for just allowing you to access your desktop or watch a movie on a big screen. This goes SO far beyond that! This allows you to have as many screens in VR as your computer can handle! Music videos (Youtube support), Twitch windows, emails, reddits, pictures, 360 videos, you name it! It has an interesting technique to deal with the fact that you can't read anything in VR: using "focus mode" it swings the screen in question as close to your face as you need it. And when the new WindowsMR headsets come out with their improved rez, it'll be even better! It's also the only software that I've seen to have support for the Vive camera: they call it a "beer cam", lol! I use a screen on my desk to see my desktop (yes, I can see my keyboard) and one behind me, hanging in the air in front of the door to my VR room: whenever I look that way, I can see...

Uninstalling deletes your library edit: It deleted my whole Hard Drive

NO! Do not install unless you enjoy clean installing windows on your computer. Just DONT!

I have tried many other virtual desktop apps so far and this one is the best. It is fast and does not slow down very much at all. With others, opening my web browser would lag them quite bad. I got into the habit of closing my eyes while waiting for the browser to finsih loading. No such problems in LightVR. So far LightVR is the only Virtual Desktop that I think I will actually be able to do work in. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants a virtual desktop on their HMD.

as far as I can tell, attempting to uninstall this deleted most of my program files. I have yet to determine how bad the damage was and whether it also deleted files from my user directory. do not install this software. if you have this software installed, do not use its uninstaller, delete it manually, and make backups before you do. since I was uninstalling things in quick succession, I can't be sure it was this that caused the issue, but uninstalling this is what got stuck.

bad programming. uninstall program messed up the whole system

Crashes, menu flickers from right hand to left so you cant read it... not usable. Steam will NOT give you a refund on this!! Do not purchase this program, it does not work, it is trash, and Steam will not help you with anything related to this. No support, no help, no refund. !! AVOID !!

This is the best VR Desktop app I have tried. I love the Keyboard glance and the way you can customize the screens and environment. The 1 thing I wish is that the dev puts an optional VR Keyboard in the App.. I realize that this is geared toward mouse and keyboard interaction but it would be nice to pop in and out of LightVR and not have to go sit down.
