[BUG] Garbage data in steamvr.vrsettings #688

Open schmensch opened 6 months ago

Describe the bug SteamVR is sometimes writing garbage data in steamvr.vrsettings:

To Reproduce This happens to me sometimes while trying to open and close SteamVR Settings (creates empty or buggy windows, and sometimes writes garbage data in SteamVR Settings:

{
   "DesktopUI" : {
      "settings_desktop" : "2904,763,799,599,1",
      "Äk²þÝ-" : "2904,763,799,599,0"
   },
   "GpuSpeed" : {

Notice the line below settings_desktop. I suspect this is random data from memory.

Expected behavior No buggy, empty or unclosable windows and no garbage data in steamvr.vrsettings.

System Information (please complete the following information):
