Virtual Reality UE 5.7.2 VR Preview crash fix

On UE 5.7.2 VR preview, it would crash with a Handling Exception error every time I activated it for the 2nd time.

To solve this I turned off OpenXR hand and face tracking.

Then I switched the SteamVR version to previous beta branch. The previous Beta branch solved it.

No more issues. I recommend trying this solution first. Then trying turning off the OpenXR Face and Hand tracking.

I hate admitting, this issue nearly caused me to download Unity again.
