USB 2 speeds while while trying to use link on the quest app
im using a usb 3 data cable rated at 5 gbps in a usb 3 port but the app is reporting only 360 mbps some reason i have jumped many many hoops trying to solve this buying cables testing every single port and ensuring my drivers are fine but still nothing any solutions ?Impossible d’accéder à l’interface Meta Quest sans couper Quest Link
Cela fait maintenant un bon moment — et plusieurs mises à jour — qu’un problème persiste. Depuis environ la V70, environ impossible d’ouvrir le menu Meta Quest directement depuis le casque lorsqu’il est connecté au PC via Quest Link. Au début, j’ai préféré attendre avant de poster sur le forum, pensant que ce serait un bug temporaire. Mais là, ça fait vraiment très longtemps que ça dure, et je ne comprends toujours pas la logique derrière ce choix. Quel est l’intérêt de bloquer l’accès aux applications du casque quand on est connecté au PC ? Ça n’a absolument aucun sens… - Impossible to access the Meta Quest interface without disconnecting Quest Link It’s been quite a while now — and several updates — that this issue has been going on. Since around V70, it has become almost impossible to open the Meta Quest menu directly from the headset while it’s connected to a PC via Quest Link. At first, I decided to wait before posting on the forum, thinking it was just a temporary bug. But it’s been going on for a very long time now, and I still don’t understand the reasoning behind this change. What’s the point of blocking access to the headset’s applications when it’s connected to a PC? It makes absolutely no sense…
Crash after Meta Link installation
Hello, I got a project on unity and i'm using meta link app to debug. It look like everytime I install it, there something that break at os level. My pc crash, chrome start to have violation access crash, slack crash too. I formated my pc and everything was running smooth until I reinstalled Meta link. Is it a known issue and if it's the case, is there any fix for that. Regards, Tommy Sirois
USB Link Speed Test
If you do a "Test Cable" Meta Horizon Link App ... Devices... Quest 3... USB Test ... Test Connection... No matter what PC Mobo USB port I use, No matter what cable I use ... The test ALWAYS it's saying that I am using USB 2 (and it recommend to use USB 3) ... so, it gives no more than 336 mbits. That it's the ROOT of the Bitrate problem in this new META HORIZON LINK APP, something that I've NEVER EVER experienced before, since I've got Quest 2, Quest Pro and Quest 3 on ANY version on the headset and Desktop Link App. The headset it's always recognized by Windows as a USB 2 device... not USB 3 WHY? Oh and BTW!, this is NOT a problem that EVERYONE has... My brother do not got the problem, same Windows version, same headset and Meta Link App v83 Thanks
Meta Link Login klappt nicht
Hallo! Ich habe ein Konto über die Handyapp eingerichtet. Wenn ich jetzt versuche mich auf dem PC bei Meta Link einzuloggen, kriege ich immer nur die Meldung dass Passwort/oder Emailadresse falsch seien. Ich habe schon mehrfach das Passwort geändert, aber alles hilft nichts. Weiß jemand Rat?
Link no longer detecting 3rd party cable
I have been using both a Quest 3 and 2 with a 3rd party cable for gameplay via link for months with no issues what so ever. However as i get onto play 2 days ago, suddenly the meta horizon link app detects the cable, says its charging at a slower rate and then stops detecting it almost immediately. This is after no previous issues at all on both platforms with both running smoothly. The official Quest cable works every second or third try but also runs into the same issue. Has anyone else had these issues in the last couple of days after v.83? Why is it after every update things no longer work when they were fine mere days ago. I have tried the following troubleshooting methods: Different Cable Different usb c port Different headset Uninstall/Reinstall Meta Horizon Link Factory reset headset Updated all graphics drivers Windows is up to date Checked for antivirus/firewallsMeta Quest Link Installation Issue – Workaround Steps
Hi everyone, We’re aware of an issue some users are experiencing when installing the Meta Quest Link app for the first time, where the installer nearly completes but then fails with an error related to a missing dependency (libcrypto.dll). We’re actively working on a software update to resolve this, but in the meantime, here’s a workaround to help you get up and running: Symptoms Installer reaches nearly 100% and then fails. Log files (found at C:\Users\<yourname>\AppData\Local\Oculus) may show: An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B) Cause The issue is due to a missing dependency for the OpenSSL 3.6 library (libcrypto.dll). Workaround Steps Manual Fix (Recommended) Download and install OpenSSL 3.6.x Win64 OpenSSL 3.6.0 Light Navigate to C:\Windows\System32 in Windows File Explorer Find libcrypto-3-x64.dll and rename it to libcrypto.dll Run the Meta Quest Link installer again Note: We are working on an official fix that will be included in an upcoming software update. This workaround is intended to help you in the meantime. If you have any questions or run into issues, please reply to this thread. Thank you for your patience!v83 Link Workaround Fix for Quest Pro/FT
For those with Quest pro's/Headsets that have facial tracking, as you know v83 rolled out an update that did not force the runtimes to expose facial tracking features. We've been troubleshooting this for weeks and not to many leads other than running backups that immediately get overwritten. Skipping over the entire troubleshooting here's the fix for now: Well thanks to another user here: andrea.511384 Passthrough over link not available? | Meta Community Forums - 1357035 This made me go back and validate a few things on working machines ( friends in other countries that haven't been hit yet ( 1 was as of today but validated this brought it back) While the post above is more for Quest (non FT) it did give me an idea to revaluate the remainder of the registry. Skipping over powershell scripts and comparisons: Here's what you need: Main ones are Face and Eye tracking however make sure to set VRPreviewLaunchLink to 0 as I found this can cause the preview area to keep loading over steamvr or others when launched. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ; Reenable Linkside experimental features + tracking toggles [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Oculus VR, LLC\Oculus] "VRPreviewLaunchLink"=dword:00000000 "ExperimentalExtensions"=dword:00000001 "PassthroughOverLink"=dword:00000001 "SpatialDataOverLink"=dword:00000001 "FaceTrackingOverLink"=dword:00000001 "EyeTrackingOverLink"=dword:00000001 ; Prevent Dash from stealing focus [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Oculus VR, LLC\Oculus\Config] "PreventDashLaunch"=dword:00000001 For the second part its important because with the current update for w/e reason DASH does not want to yield to steamvr in link it wants to stay on top. So if you load SteamVR from a dash environment it will load up then pop back to dash. If you need to restore dash functionality simply run this ( or open regedit and navigate to the below key and set it to 0 Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Oculus VR, LLC\Oculus\Config] "PreventDashLaunch"=dword:00000000 For those unsure how to run this, you can save the code snippets Make sure file extensions are visible (so it doesn’t become .txt) open file explorer click view hover show turn on file name extensions Create the file pick a folder or area you want to save this to, right click and create new text file. name it w/e you want but make sure the extension is .reg i.e: linkfix.reg if windows warns about changing file type, click yes Paste the code above right click your new regedit file you made and click edit (or load into notepad) copy paste the text from the large block above (or small if undoing (DO NOT COMBINE THESE) save and close the text editor. To Apply it simply double click your registry file you made , click ok if prompted ( u might be prompted twice if UAC is active) one applied it'll let u know its successfully applied, you can check if you want by navigating the folder path in regedit to look. Currently running link with SteamVR, VRCFT is tracking and no issues to date. Please ensure to pass this around to those u know as Meta has openly stated its not a major focus atm for them.
My Meta Quest 3 Does Not Work With Link After Updating Meta Horizon PC App
Hi... After updating meta link app on my PC, my quest doesn't show anything anymore! Its in a black screen but something weird is All movements, including the movement of the headset itself and the joysticks, are detected on the PC. For example, when I play the game Beat Saber, I can clearly see the movements of the headset, joystick, and even the clicks on the buttons in the game on the monitor, but nothing shows on the headset! I did these things: 1 - Reinstall Meta Link PC app 2 - Change my windows and update it to the latest version when i see updating meta link app doesn't work! 3 - Try my quest 3 on a different PC 4 - Try Air link 5 - Tried Steam Link, Virtual Desktop and ALVR 6 - Updated my graphic card driver And I did all of the fixes in the internet and what grok and chatgpt said!!!! BUT it still does not work for me after updating Meta Link PC App!!! I recently found that Oculus VR Library Service doesn't start, when I start this on my services i get error that i send in an image
