    Same, I cannot install Quest Link. It stalls at 2.18GB and then shows Check Connection message. Cannot install Link on any of my PCs. Very annoying, as I'm in the middle of complex Unreal VR development.  Link stopped working (as usual) and I went to reinstall it (as usual), and discovered I can't even do that anymore. I wish Elon would make an X VR headset, maybe that would work, lol. 6/16/25.

    Same here, it gets to 2.18Gb and gets stuck. After some time it brings the message connection issue. But the log says that it is not able to download one of the files, and returns 404 error.

    Meta, 

    We need to have an offline installer. If one day you stop hosting the Meta Quest Link app, what happens to our devices ? Offline Installer, please.

    I have the same issue. I tried everything I could, but nothing worked, and I can see that Meta just doesn't care.

    Hello! I have this exact same issue, tried for the past couple of days to fix, been around the houses and up the path before finally giving in and contacting support. ACCORDING to Support this is a ongoing issue they are aware of. 

    Quote from support (copied and pasted from transcript)

    "I was checking on your issue and I wanted to kindly inform you that we are greatly aware that this is an ongoing software issue happening at the moment, and it is an issue happening with our worldwide users.

    Additionally, our engineering team is working hard to address this issue so that everything is back up and running smoothly as soon as possible."

    Hope this might save you the work based headache I am know enduring!
