🕶️ VRChat Companion Utility v1.2
Built for when VR decides to fight you back.
⚡ Overview
You know the drill.
SteamVR half-starts.
VRChat launches wrong.
VirtualDesktop is fine… until it isn’t.

Stop fixing things manually.
One panel. One click. Back in VR.

SteamVR won’t start? → Check Steam is running
VRChat launches wrong? → Use Start VR Session
Discord missing? → Set path in settings
VirtualDesktop not found? → Set Streamer path manually
🧠 Why This Exists
Because VR setups are fragile.
Because timing matters.
Because:
“Just restart everything” isn’t a strategy.
