Question

Link does not have passthrough enabled?!?

Hi guys,

I'm getting this error...

            "Link installed on the machine does not have passthrough enabled which is used in the project. Please enable it in Settings > Beta > Passthrough over Meta Quest Link."

It's happening because this code in OVRProjectSetupDeviceTasks is failing...
    private static bool IsPassthroughEnabledOnLink()
    {
        return GetLinkWindowsRegistryValue("PassthroughOverLink");
    }

I'm a little embarrassed to say this, but... I don't have a Beta section in my Settings. 

Where do I find look for this?

Same here. It seems that for some reason in 83.0.0.330.349 the section has disappeared, along with it's various "over link" options.

Thank you for the confirmation. This v83 update appears to be important to them, but **bleep** it broke everything here. I am hoping they fix this soon.

It won't fix itself. Report the problem in the Developer Feedback Center.

Same for me, no Beta options ... can't enable spatial data over link.

Try the Windows registry settings from this post. The poster claims it brings the missing Beta and passthrough settings back.
