Question

Weird Windows Bug? Constant loading cursor since Meta Quest Link installed.

So I noticed that my computer was weird, with the windows mouse cursor constantly going in and out of "loading" mode, I noticed this was correlated to the OVRServer process. I installed a completely fresh version of Windows on a clean SSD, updated drivers, updated windows, then installed Meta Quest Link again. And the problem instantly manifested again. VR does work, but it seems to be slower than usual, hard to know for sure. I think the latest update triggered it, but I'm not sure. What can I do? Something is wrong and I can't find a solution.

Not very original message, but same here...

Like Smaasher, I have set "Oculus VR Runtime Service" to "manual". It's seems OK for now (will see if it still OK after Windows restart and/or after Using Meta Quest Link)...

I have the same problem, Only way to solve is to force shutdown all meta software... The problem only started after windows 11 installation.

Getting this as well lately, i have to disable the OVR services and have them start manually instead of automatically, annoying part is that i always have to force close the processes when i stop using Link.

I've also tried the beta and it still happens.

Once you've stopped OVRServiceLauncher you can stop the other two from task manager (OVR Redir and OvrServis_x64) and then delete 'RemoteDesktopCompanion.exe' from Program Files/Oculus/Support/oculus-remote-desktop. its fixed then

Same issue.  This is intolerable. Oculous app had to be uninstalled.  Useless as is.  PLEASE FIX THIS!!!
