winget install "SideQuestVR.SideQuest"

• ADB drivers are automatically installed by Oculus
• For general .apk installs and adb shell commands, use SideQuest instead
• For sideloading firmware updates, SideQuest cannot be used, and thus will need the platform-tools package below

• Oculus ADB Drivers
• Android SDK Platform-Tools

• Let Oculus download its 5GB+ installer
• While it is installing, backup the C:\OculusSetup-DownloadCache folder
• The backup must be done after the download, and while Oculus is installing
• If restoring, transfer 5GB+ to C:\OculusSetup-DownloadCache and start the Oculus installer
• If an updated Oculus client is available, it will download instead of restoring

• Go to the Oculus\Support folder
• If there's 15 folders, backup everything except oculus-dreamdeck-nux, oculus-touch-tutorial, and oculus-worlds
• 12 folders should be included in the backup and it should be around 605MB if archived
• This has been true with versions pre-V12, V18-V30
• For restoring, stop the Oculus service through command or Debug Tool, delete the existing 12 folders, restore the 12 folders from backup, and start the Oculus service

%OculusBase%\Support

• This sets the update channel to something unknown, so the Oculus client can't compare its version to check for updates
• To revert this, it may be enough to toggle the Public Test Channel option from Oculus

• LIVE Stable
• PublicTest = Public Test Channel/PTC
• NOUPD8 = Some nonsense value
