[Suggestion] Readme add - Run as admin if getting error #5

Looking for SteamVR...Success!
Looking for VR Input Emulator...
Failed to connect to open vr input emulator, ensure you've installed it. If you have, try running this fix: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Gn3IOm6GbkINplbEenu0zTr3DkB1E8Hc

Resolved after running PlayspaceMover.exe AND steam.exe as admin - perhaps add it to the readme to avoid confusion, thanks for making such a great program!

Had the same issue, but running as admin did not help. Instead, it just endlessly looks for the VR Input Emulator and never gives an error message.

Running as admin did not fix the issue. Neither does the boost bug fixer.

Try the bug fix applier here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Gn3IOm6GbkINplbEenu0zTr3DkB1E8Hc, and this fix here: https://github.com/sharkyh20/OpenVR-InputEmulator/releases/tag/SteamVR-Fix

If it still doesn't work, then I don't know!

@LiraLamine If you run playspacemover as admin you need to also run the steam.exe as admin. +1 for @naelstrof fix newest steamvr update broke playspacemover
