If you have a Unity project that's already set up for OpenXR (you have the Unity OpenXR plugin installed and configured) and you want to add the capability to target your app for HoloLens 2 or Windows Mixed Reality headsets, follow the instructions below.
To determine if your project has the Mixed Reality OpenXR plugin installed:
-
In Unity, on the menu bar, select Edit > Project Settings.
-
Ensure that you're on the XR Plug-in Management page with the Universal Windows Platform settings (Windows logo tab) displayed.
-
If Microsoft HoloLens feature group is grayed out or doesn't exist, the Mixed Reality OpenXR plugin isn't installed.

If the plugin is installed, proceed to the section named configure the project to use the Mixed Reality OpenXR Plugin. Otherwise, continue to follow the instructions below.
- If you're targeting HoloLens 2, see configure for HoloLens 2 via Project Validation for further instructions. Alternatively, to apply recommended settings by hand, see configure for HoloLens 2 manually.
- If you're targeting Windows Mixed Reality headsets, see configure for desktop VR.
