How to install Holofit PRO?

Prerequisites:

  • A compatible fitness machine (see here)
  • A compatible headset (see here)
  • Steam and Steam VR
  • Latest GPU drivers

Installation process:

First and foremost, remove unnecessary USBs/devices from your PC and consider that setup as your baseline.

When you run the installer (download it from here) and click on Install Holofit you will uncheck these options:

  • Create a dedicated window account to contain the application – UNCHECK
    When you do this, you will have one new option – Windows account to use:
    By default, it will be selected on a current windows account e.g. John. That’s the location for the installer to install the files.
  • Automatically connect to Windows user holding the app (bypass the login screen) – UNCHECK
  • Launch Holofit Software on startup – UNCHECK

Click on proceed and it will start installing base files to your PC. Once the installation is done, you will be redirected to myholofit.holodia.picovrgames.com to register your PC:
