Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Clicking the [VR] button in the top right of Steam does nothing. I see no output generated in the console output either when it is clicked. Going to Library>SteamVR>Play DOES work.

Issue is experienced by many other users. Discussion thread here.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Plug in HMD
  2. Click newly appeared VR button in top right
  3. Nothing Happens
  4. Shed a single tear :(
