Meta Quest Link software opening after I close it (Rift S)

It just started doing this recently but anytime I close the link software, my computer monitor flashes and it opens up again.

I have the done main couple things to try and troubleshoot this

-Unplug the headset (still opens with the headset unplugged)
-Try to do a fresh install of the software (including finding old oculus files to delete after uninstalling)

Both did not work. The only thing that keeps it closed is if I go into the task manager and end the OVR Service Launcer. It still flashes my screen when I close it though. Also it sometimes creates another OVR Rid process. Closing the Oculus Dash also gets rid of it.

I am guessing it might be a bug with the newest update? I've never had this problem and have seen one other complaining about this issue as well.

I am open to any suggestions, this is quite annoying.

I have found a solution thanks to a comment in the thread here. It has to do with deleting the remote desktop companion file.

@raikouwolf  let me guess, you PC link software has just updated to v71

Lots of issues with auto startup - Meta Quest Link PTC v71 began opening at system boot with no option to disable

Four Rift CV1s, Quest 2, Quest 3, Lenovo Explorer WMR, GearVR

 Yea.. I've been going back and forth with support about it too. I think it really needs a bug fix or better update especially since it's been happening to others for quite awhile now
