PTC v72 Release Thread

Hey Everyone,

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v72 is starting to roll out soon for Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest Pro, Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest 3S.

If you're seeing an issue or bug after updating to PTC v72:

1) For issues: Go to our Get Help board and search for any existing thread on the issue, if you don't find one, make a new thread. Please add the tag "PTC v72" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v72 issues too.

2) For bugs: If you come across a bug, please post each one you spot in its own thread, to keep track of individual issues separately.

Share your impressions in the comments below and let us know if you see any issues.

Please make sure to also send in bug reports along with posting on the forums if you notice anything going wrong.

We know it's tough when you run into a problem on a PTC build and want to thank you all again for testing out PTC and sharing your feedback! This feedback is extremely helpful to our engineering teams. We appreciate your interest and persistence in testing out the core functionality of software as we develop!

Did what jeffnik said thanks. That updated on quest and indeed did connect to pc and work fine.  

That's all it's worked.  Unless I click remote desktop nothing happens.  I read I'm supposed to just look at my pc and it will auto connect. But it work fine with the remote desktop!!

OversizeWizard - I read also that they planned to have it launch automatically when you looked at a Windows screen - but the way it's working for me is... when I enable the "experimental" feature in the image below, and then I look at my keyboard while Windows is logged into and running, a really cool little floating link appears directly above my keyboard with a "connect" button. Fairly seamless.

PenguinInChicago Build 72 on the software update still doesn't exist on it until next week I believe. Happened the same thing with Build 71 on the software update. I'm sorry, I forgot to mention about that.
