    Phone Link - Windows App shows multiple people in a conversation that are not actually in it.


    When I open the software on my PC the message conversations show that multiple people are in the text converstaion that are not actually in it. I will send a text to an individual but on my computer it shows multiple people in the conversation.The last time this question was asked some vague "reset your account and software" spiel was given. That does not work. Please provide an actual solution to this as it appears to be fairly common.

    :)

    Why does MS Phone Link show 2 people of texts?

    My Android phone shows there is only one person in one of my text chains, but Phone Link shows there are two, but only one is named or identified. My other text threads appear correctly, but one chain in particular shows "2 people".

    Edit (Correction): Now one of my other text chains show as there being two people in the conversation. What's different this time is that the first instance listed the original (intended) recipient, then a comma. This second chain shows a comma, then the intended recipient.

    I tried deleting the text archive for that contact, then sending a text. Initially, it said it was going to one person, showed their avatar and their phone number. Then, the desktop app added an identical text going to "2 people", but it only showed the name and avatar for the original recipient. Though, in the list of text chains, the avatar was replaced with a two-headed generic.

    When I restarted Phone Link, the original text was gone and there was only the "2 people" version.

    Nothing on my phone indicates the texts are going to two people. It's only the Microsoft Phone Link desktop app.

    Any help, remedies, suggestion or precautions would be welcome.

    Thanks!

    I think I'll put a list of people's favourite apps in the OP, starting with my own until I get some suggestions, but you can take a look at the Windows Phone app store at the top apps to see what's popular Microsoft Apps

    You are both now added, welcome! *Toast :toast:
