All future projects created do not keep these settings.“

True, if using this “per project method.” But it’s easily made permanent by editing the SteamVR plugin config file, located in in the “Plugins/Runtime/SteamVR/Config folder, located wherever your Engine version installation folder is. Just open that configure file. And change “EnabledByDefault:True” to “False” and save the text file. It does have to be repeated with each Engine version update, but it sure beats the hassle off turning it off every time.
