Windows 10: Phone Link Nolonger works after Windows 10 to 11 Upgrade PhoneExperienceHost.exe file missing

I upgraded from Windows 10 Pro to 11 Pro and now Phone Link no longer works. Microsoft support was not able to resolve the problem with extensive remote support. The uninstall option is greyed out in Settings/Apps and Microsoft store thinks it is installed so offers to open it. I ran Ashampoo Uninstaller 12 and ran it's Registry Optimizer. It reports that the file PhoneExperienceHost.exe is missing from c:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.YourPhone...... Is there any way to add the file back in?

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

PhoneExperienceHost stops working, then Phone Link won't operate

I have enable Phone Link on both my Android phone and Windows11 PC. When I start phone link on PC, it sees the Android phone properly . However, in the main box, I see the "Getting Ready" thing and after a few seconds of it trying to work, then I get PhoneExperienceHost has stopped working. Says sending data to MS, but the only thing I can then do is close the program. What may be causing this?

 

no .exe files work on my windows 10 PC

Hi,

Since your .exe files are not working, we suggest that you run the System File Checker (SFC) tool. System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files. You may follow the
