Quest Pro does not connect automatically to Link

Question

After PC power on, or PC wake up from sleep (also turning on the Meta Quest Link win11 app, if not already running), I put the headset on my head, and the main screen appears. In Quick Settings, I can see that Quest Pro doesn't automatically connect to Link via cable (it says a message "Disconnected"). This used to work few months ago (2 patches ago actually). To connect it back, I have to unplug and plug the cable back into the headset. This seems to become a new bug, or rather some software glitch, headset not connecting to pc directly.

THIS IS NOT THE SOLUTION:I think I found the "problem", with new updates there has been some changes, and there is no an Auto-Connect option (tick to add) in the Settings.What this does, is only taking you to Link screen, which is something I don't want to do it automatically. But what the win11 app and headset it self should do, is to automatically recognize the waken up Quest pro device if conncted with a usb cable (which always is).&nbsp;

In that Quick Settings there is a Link, and it says "Not connected". If I click on it, another smaller window appears and it says "Searching for PCs...".

The headset IS connected with my PC, and it cannot connect automatically.

It does, only when I disconnect and reconnect the USB cable (from headset or PC). Then it reconnects insrtantly. But this is not how it was 2 and more updates in the past. It used to connect automatically. Now it just doesn't.
