Worked for me, too. Thanks! 🙂 The problem appeared from nowhere. I was launching ok (to Meta Quest2), and 10 minutes later, I coudn’t launch. Also, if I chose to package the project and upload it to the Quest, I did not get an error, but the app oppened full black in an infinite waiting loop. But deleting the directory as explained above worked. Someone even made a video on Youtube, referencing to this page and showing the process.
