How to Disable Auto Startup of Meta Horizon Link
tep 1. right click on the meta horizon link app and open file location. File needed will most likely be named "Client" under the "oculus-client" folder. Do not click, but keep this window open. Step 2. Press the Windows key and R Step 3. Type in the box shell:startup Now you have both the startup and Oculus-Client folders open. Step 4. Go back to the Oculus window and single-click on "Client" and copy the file (CTRL+C) Step 5. Now paste the file (CTRL+V) into the startup folder you just opened. Step 6. Now go to settings/apps/startup (or search, startup apps) and you should see "Client.exe" app on there and now you can turn it off. Step 7. Test and let me know how it goes :)
Most Recent Software Update Issues
I installed the most recent software update on my Meta Quest 2 headset. The confusing and frustrating issue I encountered was that several worlds were automatically installed into storage and saved in my library without my authorization. This occurred immediately after I completed the software update. The prompt in the Worlds section of the library says something along the lines of “The Worlds you save can be found here” or “The Worlds you save are found here.” (Note: I have never seen, played, nor saved those worlds.) The final line of the prompt states, “You can remove them whenever you want.” However, after reading the prompt, I found no option to remove these worlds from the library. Another issue I experienced after this update is that, according to both the Meta Horizon app and my Quest 2, there appears to be a game listed as if I had purchased it—when, in fact, I did not. The purchase was made without my permission or authorization. This game has remained in my account for about a year since the issue first occurred, and there is still no option to permanently erase it from my account, my Quest 2’s storage, or the Meta Horizon app’s purchase records. This situation has made me feel uncomfortable and concerned about my account’s privacy and security. It seems to have been an unauthorized purchase possibly caused by a software issue at the time; furthermore, the problem still persists. One suggestion I would like to share is that for any free game, app, or world that is unused or deemed irrelevant or uninteresting to the user, there should be an option to erase it from the user’s account in the Meta Horizon app, which would then sync to Meta Quest headsets. From my perspective, this feature could improve personalized ads and content feeds within the app and the headsets, based on the data they collect. Consequently, this could enhance user satisfaction by providing more relevant and engaging content that the user genuinely enjoys.
Meta Horizon Retry
When I try to open my Meta Horizon App it will open and then immediately switch to a screen with a retry button. Hitting retry doesn’t do anything. I have tried everything google advised to. I have switched from WiFi to Cellular. Cleared cache and data. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Checked for updates. After reinstalling it lets me in for about 40 seconds before it immediately switches back to the retry button screen. I checked the website for server status which says up and functioning. Tried all of these steps on my iPhone, my son’s android and my husbands android to have the same problem. Is anyone else having this issue? Or does anyone have any other suggestions?
