Meta Horizon Link version 85.0.0.293.552 freezes with visual artefacts
Since meta link app updated to Meta Horizon Link version 85.0.0.293.552 (85.0.0.293.552) , opening up pc link from the quest 3 menu screen, loads the pc link app 3d environment, and it instantly freezes, with visual artefacts beyond the bounds of the frozen view.
I tried downgrading to Nvidia 591.74 studio driver, but the problem persists.
The console is full of errors:
