One of my biggest issues with WMR, has been the boundary ‘deleting’ itself for no reason. This issue nearly made me want to throw the headset against a wall… I’m not kidding. I can’t keep the damn thing up for longer than a day! There’s NO EXCUSE for this to be happening!! The headset has plenty of light! ..At least, I hope it is.
But finally, there’s a breakthrough. After discussing for two hours with the acquaintance, the answer was literally right through the lenses of my headset.

When losing the boundary, never once have I thought of putting the headset on. For it shows to do so, then to look left, right, and then down. Eventually, it will re-locate my boundary. Though I have had times when this message came up suddenly, doing the left right and down thing, and then it claims it can’t find the boundary (and gives me the options to re-trace it). But I hope by doing it as soon as the boundary is ‘Off’, I won’t see that message again.
And as for the ‘check display cable’ message… at this time, there doesn’t seem to be a true fix for it (other than unplugging the HDMI cable and putting it back in).
Though I’m absolutely thrilled the issue wasn’t because the headset hates my
room (and/or my guts), I can’t help but feel that the MR Portal could had told me this. There was no message of “Oops, we lost your boundary! Please put your headset on to calibrate it.”
They really need to add this. It should be common sense to include that. But I forget, this is Micro$oft.. they have no common sense.
