Hey!
You are correct that AMD 5000 series are not supported (hardware limitations, nothing we can do anything about unfortunately).
Also, there is no such thing as the “FOV” feature, this was made up by a YouTuber. You mean Foveated Rendering.

Is that in the OpenXR Tools for WMR?
There were a few possible reasons for this, and if I recall they were all benign (meaning it still worked in flight sim).
Have you tried reinstalling the OpenXR Toolkit?
Yes and Yes to both. Unfortunately, I am not able to run VR in the sim as it tells me that OpenXR is not active.
What happens if you disable openxr toolkit from the Companion app?
The OpenXR runtime error resolves when I disable the toolkit app.
Sounds like it wasn’t happening before, and you tried a reinstall without luck.
So you must have changed something else on your system.
Can you take a look at this message and follow the steps?

Not seeing any red dependencies using the steps in your post.
Bummer………………….
I now have a handful of people reporting since issue since , so there must be some sort of component that got updated and is breaking OpenXR Toolkit…
What is the saying…“No good deed goes unpunished…” Thank you for your efforts on this tool as it is really a game changer for MSFS VR.
No worries, I only mean that we need to identify what happened. For those 5 users so far there must be a common denominator, some software that was updated yesterday and broke it.
What Windows are you on? 11? 10 (which one, 21H1?).
Unknown OpenXR Runtime
XR_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_ERROR

This happens since this morning when I have the Toolkit active.
See the images attached.
Reinstalled everything, OpenXR, WMR, the toolkit,'same problem persists.
Mixed Reality Portal got an update this morning, saw it by accident.
Hope you have the time to fix it soon.
Regards.
Would appreciate this as well. Personally, I think that when people ask for a brightness slider, what they really need is gamma. That’s the one to use to properly adjust the “brightness” of the scene for your headset. Brightness slider just washes everything out.

Some sort of windows update is breaking things but we don’t know which one or what it is. You’re the first to mention a WMR update though.
In fact, there was also a Windows Update:
2022-03 cumulative Update for Windows 11 for x64-based Systems (KB5011563)
It updated automatically, Mixed Reality Portal (app) as well.
The link shows up after I click Learn More in windows update history.
I was told reverting this update might fix your issue. Obviously not ideal but perhaps OK temporarily while we get to the bottom of it.
Wow I reset my PC and thought that was the problem and was about to reset it again, thanks for the save!
So what did you do? Revert that update I mentioned?
Sorry for the belated reply. I am on Win 10 Home 21H1 with all of the latest updates. RTX3090. It looks like the latest update was 2022-03 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 10 Version 21H1 for x64-based Systems (KB5011543)
