Hello @TheScripter! While that button you're trying to press might be doing nothing, we're here to try something! We'd like to suggest a few things to check, to help you get things set up how you prefer:

 

  • Launch the Quest Link app as an administrator on your PC
  • Ensure no other third-party VR programs (ex. SteamVR) is already set as the default
  • Confirm that the registry is 64bit, not 32bit

 

If those don't seem to do the trick, try uninstalling/reinstalling the app, and then let us know how it went!

Where do you make sure no other third-party VR program is set as the default? Links to instructions?

Hey @blueflame977! That's a great question! We have provided some steps below to see if this will help:

 

  1. Open your Oculus software.
  2. Navigate to Settings -> General.
  3. Click the 'Set Oculus as active' button to choose Oculus as your active OpenXR runtime. Depending on your Oculus software version this option can be under 'General'

Please let us know if these steps worked for you!
