Windows 10: How to re-setup instant hotspot in phone link on Windows 11?

I accidently removed or "forget" my previous instant hotspot settings from my PC, and now I want to setup my instant hotspot again. When I go to phone link and click instant hotspot, it says "your device has been added successfully", but my so called added device is not visible in the WiFi menu.Steps that I've tried:1. Removing linked device and adding it again on PC2. Removing linked device and adding it again on mobile phone3. Updating, reinstalling, re-enabling instant hotspot driver from device managerTo make it clear again, instant hotspot feature was previously available on my Windows PC

Hello Deepali

Im Juliet and Im happy to help you

Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Make sure your phone and PC are both compatible with instant hotspot via Phone Link. Check the system requirements for both devices to ensure they meet the minimum requirements.

2. Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on both your phone and PC. On your phone, go to Settings > Bluetooth and make sure it is turned on. On your PC, go to Settings > Devices > Bluetooth & other devices and make sure Bluetooth is turned on.

3. Check if your phone and PC are paired. Go to Settings > Devices > Bluetooth & other devices on your PC and see if your phone is listed as a paired device. If it is not, try pairing your phone with your PC and see if that resolves the issue.

4. Restart both your phone and PC. Sometimes, simply restarting your devices can resolve connectivity issues.

I hope this helps! Let me know what happens
