Meta Quest Link PTC v71 began opening at system boot with no option to disable

So, few days ago Meta Quest Link app on my PC updated to PTC v71 and now it opens its window on every PC boot. There is no option to disable this behavior in the app.

What's worse I couldn't even find any registry or Task Scheduler entry that causes it. Seems like Oculus VR Runtime Service suddenly started opening the app on startup (this is the only Oculus/Meta related thing that Windows starts on boot).

Please either revert this change or add option to stop this.

so what do we do if we don't want to download a meta mobile app and we also don't want anything to automatically open on start up??!?!?!?!

You manually disable Oculus services in Windows.
