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.

This is why i LOVE automatic updates. If something was working fine, force updates until it's not. Quest 3, USB link. was working until.. well now it's not. for reasons. No changes on my end. uninstalled/reinstalled their software. No logs to speak of, no event viewer entries, wonderful job guys, keep it up!!!

THANK YOU META!!!

Ive seen people say on reddit say to turn off automatic updates both on meta link and headset unless it for some reason forces the update, so once this is fixed thats going to be my plan.

Same issue here. Airlink. Endless three dots. Reinstalling the desktop app didn't help.
