Horizon link not working

My Q3 was linking fine to my PC this afternoon, then literally an hour or two later, will not link.

I'm using a usb 3.0 cable, it is in a USB 3 port, power management of USB port is set correctly.

I get a notification saying 'Meta Quest Link isn't working correctly. Click here to check our support article'.

There is no support article.

I have restarted the headset and PC, repaired the Horizon app, logged out and back into the Horizon app, restarted the OVR service and I still can't get it to work.

Anyone else having or had similar issues recently? 

Horizon software 83.0.0.333.349

Headset V83.1034 build 5156385.14650.520

Grateful for any ideas.

The fact this many of us are having this issue is 100% BS. Does Meta not test these patches before they create such ridiculous issues? I haven't touched my headset in two days and I thought it was something on my end. I even thought my Pupis SI router for air link stopped working. Patch this up immediately meta!

I just got an update for the Link software and now it's working. It still shows the same software version but now it works after the update.

For those of you still having problems connecting headset to PC just install latest update in the headset using wifi. 

this solves the connection issue
