New Update for QuestLink is very broken
Over the past few days whenever I try to launch the program it refuses to open, I've gone into the code multiple times trying to see if there was an Issue and I couldn't find anything. it's just refused to work properly, ALOT of people have told me to just play wireless but my internet is not good enough to handle that and everything else on it. I really need a way to roll back the update from a few days ago so I can actually use the program again, please and thank you.32Views0likes1CommentAir Link isn't working even though I have all of the requirements
Every time I use the Air Link with my Meta Quest 3 it stutters and stops, and then crashes and kicks me, but once I'm on stand alone it says I can connect again. I've changed the bandwidth limit and everything else under the sun, but nothing seems to fix the problem. I've also repaired the app like five times, I've also checked steam vr too cause I also use that too but I don't why it keeps freezing for ages and then kicking me, or it'll freeze take like 30 seconds to 5 minutes to catch up. I don't know how to fix it and I would like some help.31Views0likes2CommentsAudio no longer works when connecting to Windows 11 via AirLink/Link Cable
[Note as of 12/6/2025 - For me, this was fixed by the latest update to the Horizon Link software, and joining the Beta Channel is no longer needed.] The Problem: As of 11/26, I no longer get any audio through my Quest3 headset while I'm connected to my Win11 PC via AirLink. This has worked for me for years, and this is the first time I've had an issue with it. The only change I'm aware of, is that I did a 'Repair' using the Oculus Installer to solve a different issue I was having (a "can't find OculusClient.exe" error). After the Repair (which looked successful), I started having this audio issue. To be clear, audio works fine for me in the headset when I'm not connected over AirLink. Once in AirLink, I get no audio from any desktop Oculus app that I run. I've tested a few. When I leave AirLink, I get local audio in my headset again. Solutions I've Tried: There are a fair number of support threads on this kind of issue here and in Reddit, and I believe I've Googled and found them all. None of them have solved my issue. Here is the list of things I've done: [Note: Just because a solution didn't work for me doesn't mean these are bad solutions. Some of these have worked for others. Indicated by a (*). As of 12/4 the solution marked with (***) now works for me!] (Last updated 12/4/25) Use cable instead of AirLink (*) Run the repair using the Meta Quest Link (Oculus) Installer (*) Uninstall Meta Horizon Link, reboot PC, reinstall the app, reboot PC and Quest 3, and try again Scan the Setup and Driver install logs for errors (I don't see a smoking gun, but the logs are attached to this post) (*) Manually uninstall the Oculus Virtual Audio Device input driver from device manager, then uninstall and reinstall Horizon Link (also rebooting in between steps again, to be sure) (*) Rename my Oculus Virtual Audio Device to "Headphones" (It used to be named "Quest VR", and it worked fine, but I changed it back to Headphones after reading another forum post) (***) Join the Horizon Link Beta Public Test channel, let the app update, reboot my PC and Quest, and trying again Unpair my Quest3, uninstall Horizon Link, delete ...AppData\Local\Oculus directory, reboot, reinstall, repair the Quest and try again Uninstall Horizon Link using Revo Uninstaller, let it do a complete post uninstall clean, reboot, reinstall, try again Reboot my PC and Quest 3 many times by now during various troubleshooting steps Obvious steps: make sure I can get audio on my PC through other outputs, make sure the volumes are correct, make sure that correct audio devices are selected at the right times, etc. My Settings Here are what the relevant settings on my PC look like when I'm connected via AirLink. Audio Devices Meta Link Program I have also tried all the combinations of Hear VR Audio from Computer and Hear Computer Audio in VR, but the screenshot below shows what used to work for me and now no longer works. Audio Devices The Virtual Audio device is present, enabled, and can get audio. It is also named "Headphones". NOTE: Something I find a little bit weird is that when I'm connected via AirLink, the volume is always showing at 1/2 level, even when I have no audio playing on my PC. When I disconect from AirLink, it stops doing this, and only shows the audio bar when something is actually playing. I don't know if this behavior occurred before my issue started, or if it coincides with it. Audio Devices Here are all the audio devices on my PC. I don't know exactly what I'm looking for, so I don't know if this is correct or not. It looks correct, although I do find it a bit strange there is no Oculus Virtual Audio Device under the Sound, video and game controllers section Drivers I can tell that the drivers are being updated whenever I install the Meta Quest Link Program, because the timestamp of these files is always updated NOTE: I do find it a bit strange that the Oculus Virtual Audio Device shows different driver information depending on where I look. Here it is in Win11 basic settings: Here it is in the Device Manager: Worth Mentioning (Windows error after Installation) Whenever I finish an installation or repair, I always get this error. I don't believe this is related to my audio issue, because my installation seems successful, as shown in my previous screenshots. But it's worth mentioning. NOTE: the Meta Quest Client is NO LONGER called 'oculus-client\OculusClient.exe', but simply 'oculus-client\Client.exe'. I don't know where on my PC there is old data pointing to the old filename, but it clearly affects the installer (even though I just downloaded the latest version from the website). I also had to manually fix my Meta Quest Link shortcut that had this same problem. I've been a user since the original retail Oculus, so maybe that's why this happened to me once the devs changed the client exe name; not sure. Again, I doubt it's even relevant. Obviously I didn't have this issue way back when I first bought my Quest 3 and set all this up. Thanks for any help with this issue.Solved2.3KViews34likes87CommentsMeta Quest Link not working
Hello, I used to be able to play on my VR with a link cable perfectly fine, but I recently got a new computer, and it doesn't work. I checked the requirements and my PC meets them without question, but whenever I try to connect the headset, my computer gives me messages like "Meta Quest Link isn't working correctly. Click here to check our support article." I checked that article, but nothing seemed to help. The Quest program on my computer shows that my headset is connected and ready to launch, and so does my headset, but when I launch it through the link cable, it just doesn't load, and it stays on a black screen. I've also tried connecting my headset through a USB hub instead of the actual computer to connect it through USB 3, but it still doesn't work. Is there any way I can troubleshoot it? Thank you!Solved28KViews3likes53CommentsQuest Pro controllers go to sleep too quickly.
Both my partner and I have Quest Pros. We AirLink them to our PCs and play VRChat that way. However, we've both noticed that if we stop moving our hands for only about 10 to 15 seconds the controllers seem to go into a sleep mode which causes our characters in VR's arms to drop straight down to their sides. We can wake the controllers back up by wiggling them a bit but it's quite annoying and jarring to have your arms constantly fall to your sides. It's especially annoying when you're using one controller to scroll through a menu and the other goes to sleep causing the game to enter into one controller mode and then the controller you were using to scroll a menu now moves your character so the menu closes and your character starts moving in some direction. I have looked all over but do not see a way to adjust how frequently the controllers go to sleep when not being moved. I've also tried factory resetting both the headset and the controllers.Solved11KViews7likes20CommentsTrouble with meta quest link log-in section
Hi there , i´m trying to log-in on meta quest link and when i type my email and password(correctly), always show the "email or password incorrect" has changed my password two times, creating another account and even unistalling and installing the app and still not working - Please Help61Views0likes3CommentsBizarrely specific Quest 3 PC Link problems from newest update.
I just updated to the newest Meta Quest Link software. Now on online multiplayer games, specifically Onward (on Quest Link) and Forefront (on SteamVR) have an issue where the right eye display is completely thrown/scaled/sized/warped incorrectly, its actually pretty nauseating. Weirdly it didn't do this with Into the Radius (on Quest Link) or CONVRGENCE (on SteamVR). When I switched the OpenXR runtime to SteamVR instead of Quest Link, the issue stopped on Forefront. I tried disabling asynchronous spacewarp and sliced encoding and that didn't fix the problem. Onward still displays fine on stand-alone. I tried running the repair function on the Quest Link setup exe but that did not fix the issue. Additionally, I ran Forefront on my PSVR2 with the PC adapter and it displayed fine. Idk if it's important, but for reference, I have a Radeon GPU (RX 7800 XT), which to my knowledge sometimes struggles with VR related software support. Although, because the direct-to-DP PSVR2 worked fine, I don't think it's a problem with my GPU. It seems very likely that its an issue with the Meta Quest Link OpenXR runtime. I have no idea how to fix this. Onward is my favorite game and I much prefer it on PC, and I don't wanna have to buy it again on SteamVR just to play the game I already bought. Update: I did some more testing, and when playing Forefront with my Quest the microphone no longer works. The first thing I did was try to uninstall + reinstall Onward, and it wont let me redownload it. It will download everything then just say "failed to install, contact Meta for help." I tried removing all the files manually a reinstalling, got the same response. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Into the Radius and it worked just fine.Solved160Views1like3CommentsQuest 3: No Sound, only when using Air Link for wireless PCVR
Hi All, Solved: Repair the installation of the Oculus PC app by running the installer again and selecting repair. Mine took two attempts, as the first repair crashed mid-repair. Problem: When using Air Link to play wireless PCVR, I have no sound though the headset speakers or through headphones that are plugged into the headset. I DO have sound under all other circumstances and conditions, including playing PCVR via steam link and virtual desktop, and the headset by itself. I am unable to locate any existing advice that goes beyond the following settings, which all appear to be in line with recommendations. I doubt it matters, but my hardware is as follow: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro, Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045 Meta Link App Version 62.0.0.235.346 (62.0.0.235.346) CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700x Memory: 16GB DDR4 Mobo: TUF Gaming x570-PLUS GPU: PNY GeForce RTX® 4080 16GB XLR8 Gaming Verto Epic-X What I've tried: reinstalling Oculus on the PC. Setting Playback device to Oculus Virtual Audio Device. A clean reinstall of windows. Replace m2 drive. Update drivers for bios, motherboard, cpu, gpu. Ensure headset software is up to date.Solved8.5KViews1like11CommentsAir Link suddenly not working
