Quest 2 Not Detected? Try This Easy Fix!!

Quest 2 Not Detected? Try This Easy Fix!!
What's going on everyone? In today's video, I'm going to show you a little issue I found with the Oculus Quest 2 while trying to use Oculus link. And I'm going to show you how I fixed it the easy way. The fix is definitely a strange one and it doesn't matter if you're using Nvidia graphics or AMD graphics either. This really shouldn't be an issue but it is. Thank you all so much for the patience, love, and support. I really couldn't do this without you!

It's come to my knowledge that the information in this video is a tab bit outdated. Meta has moved a lot of the options in the menu system around which makes this video hard to follow. But there is good news, I am working on an updated version of this video which is due to release in few weeks. Stay tuned for the updated video and thank you for making me aware of this issue. See you all very soon!

[gowtthi]

[JackEverton]

How the hell is this still a problem four months later!?!

I’m gonna try your fix, because right now my PC can’t even find it

[yoyexists]

for me it just starts charging and doesnt do anything else

In 2023 the fix is different, you have to go to quest settings, system settings, and then the developer menu (if you have it enabled). If usb connection dialogs is off switch it on and it should work again
