It's not just you, every Oculus Rift is effectively bricked right now

Oculus goofed, and it's going to be a little bit before you can use your Rift again.

If you were hoping to get a little VR in today, and you own an Oculus Rift, you might have noticed a strange error regarding the Oculus Runtime Service. The good news is there's nothing wrong with your computer or the physical components of your Oculus Rift. The bad news is Oculus has to be the one to publish a fix to this problem affecting every single Oculus Rift right now, and that might take a little while.

First discovered in the Oculus Forums, the cause of this Oculus Runtime Service error is an expired certificate. Because Oculus failed to renew this certificate, the Oculus Runtime Service is being viewed as invalid. The only way to fix this is for Oculus to release an updated version of OculusAppFramework.dll with a new certificate. Once that happens, your Oculus services should return to normal operating speed.

Some forums are suggesting a workaround for this expired certificate which includes adjusting the system clock on your PC to a time before the expatriation of the certificate, but this has not been confirmed to work for every PC and will negatively impact other functions within Windows 10 in the process. Your best bet, unfortunately, is to wait for a fix from Oculus.

We'll be keeping this post updated with new information as we find it.
