1 Please move the downloaded file OpenXR-Toolkit-1.3.2.msi from Download folder directly to the C: drive, where you can find folders like Windows and Program Files.

2 After transferring it, right-click on the file OpenXR-Toolkit-1.3.2.msi and select Properties. In the General tab, check the “Unblock” box at the bottom and click Apply, then OK.

3 Next, in the search bar at the bottom of the screen, type CMD and right-click on Command Prompt, selecting “Run as administrator.”

4 Then, copy and paste the following code into the CMD window:

msiexec /i C:\OpenXR-Toolkit-1.3.2.msi /qb

To paste the code, just right-click in the CMD window and the code should automatically be pasted.

5 Press Enter to run the command.

6 Once you press Enter, the installation will begin. A “Preparing to install” message will appear.

7 Installation process will be very quick and when the preparation window closes, it indicates that the installation has been completed.

You’re very welcome.

I could have provided guidance on modifying Windows Group Policy settings to allow the installation of the .msi file, but for security reasons, I chose to treat this as a one-time workaround.
