Remove Power Plans


For whatever reason, Windows likes to revert to High Performance (or another program switches it) instead of keeping a custom power plan
The solution to this is to simply remove all power plans that aren't the custom one

Show Plans

powercfg /list

Ultimate Power Plan

Windows 10 Help Forums [https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/107613-add-remove-ultimate-performance-power-plan-windows-10-a.html]

powercfg -duplicatescheme e9a42b02-d5df-448d-aa00-03f14749eb61

Remove Plans

Replace x with the GUID of the plan listed with the above command

powercfg -delete x

powercfg -delete 381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e

Prevent Driver Changes


Notes

To be done after a proper driver is manually installed


This ensures Windows Update nor anything else can replace installed drivers for specific devices unattended
Additional entries need to add a new number (the value after /v)
The device ID can be acquired from Device Manager and should be pasted as-is (no extra slashes)

Base Policies

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions" /v "DenyDeviceIDs" /t "REG_DWORD" /d "1" /f

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions" /v "DenyDeviceIDsRetroactive" /t "REG_DWORD" /d "0" /f

Format

Do not copy/paste these as-is; only here for reference


Adjust to specific devices as-needed

Add Prevent Policy

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions\DenyDeviceIDs" /v "#" /t "REG_SZ" /d "PCI\VEN_XXXX&DEV_XXXX&SUBSYS_XXXXXXXX&REV_XX" /f

Remove Prevent Policy

reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions\DenyDeviceIDs" /v "#" /f

Use HEVC

Use HEVC/H.265 instead of AVC/H.264 for Link


As of 2021/06/30, HEVC doesn't work for a RX 580, but it falls back to AVC; presumably this will be fixed at some point

reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Oculus\RemoteHeadset" /v "HEVC" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f

Disable SPUD

This lowers average Motion-to-photon latency by about 4ms for a Rift CV1 (19ms to 15ms)

ADB

ADB drivers are automatically installed by Oculus


For general .apk installs and adb shell commands, use SideQuest instead
For sideloading firmware updates, SideQuest cannot be used, and thus will need the platform-tools package below

Android SDK Platform-Tools [https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip]

Backup/Restore

Installer

Let Oculus download its 5GB+ installer


While it is installing, backup the C:\OculusSetup-DownloadCache folder
The backup must be done after the download, and while Oculus is installing
If restoring, transfer 5GB+ to C:\OculusSetup-DownloadCache and start the Oculus installer
If an updated Oculus client is available, it will download instead of restoring

Client

Go to the Oculus\Support folder


If there's 15 folders, backup everything except oculus-dreamdeck-nux, oculus-touch-tutorial, and oculus-worlds
12 folders should be included in the backup and it should be around 605MB if archived
This has been true with versions pre-V12, V18-V30
For restoring, stop the Oculus service through command or Debug Tool, delete the existing 12 folders, restore the 12 folders from backup, and start the Oculus service

%OculusBase%\Support

Prevent Client Updates

This sets the update channel to something unknown, so the Oculus client can't compare its version to check for updates
To revert this, it may be enough to toggle the Public Test Channel option from Oculus

LIVE Stable
PublicTest = Public Test Channel/PTC
NOUPD8 = Some nonsense value

reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Oculus VR, LLC\Oculus\Config" /v "CoreChannel" /t "REG_SZ" /d "NOUPD8" /f

this is particularly bad with Intel RST; if it's signed by Intel, it won't allow booting; there is no warning of this when loading the RST driver during Windows set-up
