"Game was not started in VR"

[SFJake]

Using SteamVR, Quest 2. Followed instructions. Using -vrmode openvr. It gets to the main menu and the controllers work for steamVR, and the headset works, but cannot see the controllers, cannot point and cannot do anything. Thats it. Have searched around, found no solution.

How do you start the game? Try starting it from within steamvr in the dashboard.

I'm afraid I'm not sure what I did different this time, I'm new to VR stuff, moved on to other games and tried it again (reinstalled everything from scratch) and it worked. Must have been a user error but I do not know what I did different. Sorry for the trouble.
