    Phone Link App - How do you copy and paste photos between phone and desktop? There seems to be no way to drag and drop as in the past. No matter what I do, I can't transfer them from my phone to my desktop. Microsoft guidance says highlight and copy to clipboard, and it will go to both clipboards phone and desktop and then paste from the clipboard to the appropriate device. That doesn't happen, and I have all of the settings set to allow copy and paste between the two devices.In detail, what am I doing wrong or failing to do?Thanks

    :)

  2. Your Phone App - Link to Windows not working

    Has anyone found the secret to getting the Your Phone - Link to Windows App working correctly?
    Looking at the number of posts in other forums saying they have problems there is clearly a major issue with this App. It's a pity because it used to work quite well before recent Windows updates.
    Basically my phone (Samsung A515) will connect to Your Phone on my PC and I can see the headers of Notifications on my PC. If I try to read Messages or access Photos or open Desktop Apps it says I need permissions and asks me to click on a link to send a permission request to my phone. It never arrives. I don't see any permission request. Also it doesn't say what permissions are missing nor how to enable them.
    The response from MS is always to ensure that your phone and PC Apps are at the latest version (they are). I suspect there is a major bug in this App, yet others seem to suggest that it does work. Hopelessly confused.

  3. MS app for 10, Your Phone not copying clickable links in messages,

    appears in the sent messages as only text.

    See when you select to copy text in a browser, if there is a hyperlink, it will preserve it when pasted in another browser tab text box.

    But with the Your Phone 10 app from MS, it is text only. Is there a setting for that, cause otherwise the phone app is not very useful to me. I just sent a forum message with a clickable link to a friend's phone, but comes out as text only. So then had to use the phone to share the link. So not useful if have to double the work, might as well just use the phone and not bother with windows linked to the phone.
