v83 "Beta" section missing in Link (Quest Pro)
I've seen several people encountering this issue, and I've many several people going to meta support with varying answers if anything is actually going to be done about it.
With the release of v83 on both the VR headset's firmware, and the actual PC Link software, I've concluded that's it's an issue with the Meta Quest Link and not with the headset. For Christmas I was gifted a shiny new Quest Pro (mainly for the face tracking). So imagine my surprise with the problems that arose when I found out that I needed to enable PTC (Public Test Channel) for quest link, after downloading and testing VRCFT (No Issues, and I have the correct module installed), syncing my meta account, and transferring over all of my audio inputs/outputs, I found my FT still wasn't working. I figured that out after some research, and under the assumption it wouldn't take long, took off all of my equipment.
For some reason, even when enabled, it still does not display the "beta" tab. Which is needed in order to bridge the Quest Pro's eye and facial expressions to other applications, as well as developer for Link. As well as, I've found that whenever I allow Link to make changes to my desktop, it gets stuck trying to download a different version of the app, which doesn't work properly either. It as well gets stuck, trying to find "OculusLink.exe" in the files, which are not present. The closest resemblance is called "Link.exe" among the files, which opens to the same application with an update loop. Upon renaming it, the app doesn't even open anymore.
I've seen this problem among reddit, other forums, and even other friends experiencing the same issue. If anybody knows when or if this will be fixed by meta in v84/85, or if a patch is on the way. Do inform me as this has upset me a great deal, I was much looking forward to the Quest Pro.
(Additional info: I have developer AND PTC enabled on my Quest Pro in standalone, developer and verification on my meta account, and PTC IS active on Link without any updates, without the beta tab anywhere to be found.)
