Question

Quest 3 cable link not working

Cable link not working (v83

I use my Quest 3 for VR flights on MSFS2024 (XBOX/ MS Store) and since the last Meta Horizon App update I can't get the cable link on when the game is running. I wish I could downgrade for the old version because i used to conect the headset when the game was already running. I've already tried to restart the meta services on task manager but didn't work, and the headset gets stuck on that 3 dots and meta logo screen, and it streams the pc audio too.  I've changed the USB port on my pc, reinstalled the meta app, restart headset, drivers all updated and nothing... I wish someone can help me figure out this, thanks.

As far as I know, it's not possible to connect Link or AirLink after any game has launched. I've never been able to do it (only audio and a black screen). Had my Q3 for about 8 months.
