QR code not showing for Mixed reality link
I'm trying to pair my Meta Quest 3S with my Windows 11 Pro 25H2 PC using Microsoft Mixed Reality Link, but I’m stuck at the QR-code step. The Quest gives me the pairing prompt. I select Pair, confirm that the PC and headset are on the same Wi-Fi/network, and then it tells me to use the keyboard shortcut on my PC. I press Alt + Shift + W, and the Mixed Reality Link pairing screen opens normally — but there is no QR code anywhere on the screen. Things I’ve already tried: Restarting the PC Ending the Mixed Reality Link process through Task Manager Disabling background activity for the app Uninstalling and reinstalling Mixed Reality Link Using the Windows Repair option Resetting the Mixed Reality Link AppX package through PowerShell Microsoft Support also tried to remotely access my PC, but the remote session kept disconnecting, so they weren't able to investigate further. The agent said I'd already gone through the basic troubleshooting and suggested I leave the issue here to see if anyone has encountered it. The main issue is simply that the QR code never appears after opening the pairing screen with Alt + Shift + W. If anyone knows what could cause this or has found a fix, I'd really appreciate it.
Edge features list
While I appreciate the effort the developers put into expanding the Edge functionality, I also get frustrated when functionality doesn't have proper policies to turn it on/off. A few examples: - Read Aloud msedge.exe --disable-features=msReadAloud,msShowReadAloudIconInAddressBar Currently this works, but there is no policy equivalent - Citations msedge.exe --disable-features=msEdgeCitations Currently this works, but there is no policy equivalent - Sharing Setting policy 'configure the share experience' to disabled does a good job of hiding the newer sharing hub flyout menu. Sadly enough, when selecting the address from the address bar (omnibox) you are presented with a 'Create QR code for this page' button instead. I have not found a way to turn off the QR Code Generator. - Window Naming No policy or command line parameter exists to turn off this feature as far as I know - Bookmarks toolbar button No policy or command line parameter exists to turn off this feature as far as I know. The only way this is configurable at the moment is by specifying 'show_toolbar_bookmarks_button' in the initial_preferences file, which doesn't work well in combination with ephemeral profiles. (only works one time - and many others... Just to be clear: I'm already running edge in kiosk (public browsing) mode. You would expect a minimal UI with a titlebar, optionally a (read-only) addressbar,... But instead you're presented with all that clutter. Even access to the ellipsis menu button, task manager, breakouts to other websites through 'Help and Feedback' > 'What's new', 'Report unsafe website',... are still available in kiosk mode. The only other option that exists is to run the browser in digital signage kiosk mode, but then the user gets a full-screen experience with no access to other applications in Windows. So that's useless if you want to give the user access to more than 1 application. I understand Edge works like Chrome with prefs, settings, features, switches and flags. But I really hope that https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies are going to be put in place for every feature open to the main public. Customizability is key for large enterprise environments. Now that I got that off my chest... Does anybody know if Microsoft has documented the different prefs, settings, features, switches and flags somewhere? Some of it I can find by reading the https://source.chromium.org/, but Microsoft changes to Edge are of course not there.
