Question

Link doesn't work at all after the new update

I wanted to play VR one day as i tried linking my meta quest 3s to the computer via cable but then it began to load for forever, tried via air link:same problem. But before the incident i had message on my PC app saying "Some functions of meta quest link may not work.."
is there any solution?

is there any solution?

  • Make sure your GPU driver is fully up to date.
  • If your PC or laptop has an integrated GPU as well as a dedicated gaming GPU, then disable the integrated GPU.
  • Make sure the Windows service: "QWAVE" is not disabled on your PC.
  • If you had previously used Oculus Debug Tool to set a high Encode Bitrate value, try using a lower bitrate.

 

The first two solutions above should fix 99% of the infinite Link loading screen problems.

    If you have a 5xxx series GPU (such as RTX 5060 Ti), the fix is to use the Oculus Debug Tool to disable Asynchronous Spacewarp:

    1. Open the Oculus Debug Tool (C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-diagnostics\OculusDebugTool.exe). Or (C:\Program Files\Meta Horizon\Support\oculus-diagnostics\OculusDebugTool.exe).

    2. Locate "(PC) Asynchronous Spacewarp".

    3. Change it from "Auto" to "Disabled."

    4. Go to the top menu: Service > Restart Oculus Service.

    Hello. I've had the same problem. Solution for me was to uninstall driver for the GPU through DDU and then a fresh driver installation.
