Description

### Tested versions

I only tried Godot v4.3.

### System information

Windows 11 Pro 23H2 - NVIDIA RTX 3070 Ti - Meta Quest 2

### Issue description

I am experiencing a problem where the GODOT Editor crashes when I try to edit a project.

I open the **Godot XR Tools Demo** and after about 30 seconds, the editor just crashes. I can run it but cannot open the project in the editor.

I updated my NVIDIA drivers to the latest which is currently v566.14. I have an NVIDIA RTX 3070 Ti and a Meta Quest 2 headset.

Windows events viewer shows the following error:

### Steps to reproduce

Research direction

Start by reproducing the crash with the Godot XR Tools Demo or Godot XR Template on Windows 11, then inspect the reported Godot_v4.3-stable_win64.exe failure and D3D12Core.dll event details. Done means the editor no longer crashes while editing either reproduction project, with the result checked against the listed NVIDIA RTX 3070 Ti setup.
