I have created a new project in Unity with the latest version and installed Mixed Reality Toolkit. However, when I deploy the scene to my HoloLens 2, it launches as a 2D window instead of a 3D AR application. How can I convert this to a 3D AR application?

    Hello, Welcome to Microsoft Q&A,

    Disabling the “Initialize XR on Startup” option could cause this issue. Please open the Project Settings panel, navigate to the XR Plug-in Management page, and select the Universal Windows Platform tab. Ensure that “Initialize XR on Startup” is selected. enter image description here
