The worst software experience
Venting. Trying to use the Meta Quest Link software on Windows 11 with the Meta Quest 3 and a USB cable is a horrible experience. Meta should be embarrassed and they should fire whoever is in charge ...

I have a similar problem
My meta quest link takes about 5 minutes to launch, it has been doing this since earlier this year I even tried wiping my computer and reinstall everything fresh to try and fix it with no luck. I did find a temporary solution, I opened the computer services and restarted "Oculus VR Runtime Service" before starting Oculus Link from the headset. Oculus link will work normal after until I turn off the computer, next time I want to use Oculus link I would have to go back into services and restart it again.
I am using windows 11, Quest 3 headset
