Quest 2 Casting to PC stopped working. "Something went wrong"

I’ve searched through older posts, Reddit, and everything I could find on Google, but nothing seems to work. Based on other posts in the forum, it seems like nobody has ever found a solution to this problem.

I’m a streamer, and I got a Quest 2 to stream some standalone games and PCVR games to Twitch. To do this, I need the casting feature to work on my PC browser. It works perfectly on other computers, phones, tablets, and even on the TV browser, but it won’t work on my main streaming PC.

Every time I try to cast, I get the message:

Something went wrong. Try refreshing the page and casting from your headset again.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

  • Changing Quest account – didn’t work
  • Factory reset – didn’t help
  • Changing internet – didn’t work
  • Router reset – didn’t work
  • No firewall enabled
  • Tested the connection on both public and private networks – neither worked
  • Everything is on the same Wi-Fi network
  • Tried using both Chrome and Edge – same problem

I really need to solve this. I can cast to the PC using Sidequest or the Air Receiver app, but neither of those capture my microphone.

Thank you for taking the time to try several troubleshooting methods. 

 

You've stated that you are able to cast to your phone and TVs, therefore, this could be an indication that the problem is with your laptop.

I wish there was a way to capture logs from the headset and browser…
