Windows 10: PhoneLink problems windows 11

I have had numerous problems with windows phonelink to an Samsung phone.Latest is I can send Text msg from phonelink on windows 11 platform.I have tried rebooting the pc and phone. I have cleared the cache on the phone. I basically either end up deleting the device and reconnect to get a reconnection.I have avast, I am on the same wifi. I sync over mobile data. This is the 3rd day I have fooled with this.Any ideas? I mean beyond just deleting and reinstalling? As system designer and life long programmer...it seems absurd to having to keep clearing cache, deleting device and programs to get it

PhoneLink - Not pairing with app or manually (iphone)

When the phonelink app for came out, it was working great with my Iphone. Had no issues pairing over bluetooth or otherwise. Unfortunately, since about 2-3 weeks ago, the phonelink app kept telling me it was having trouble connecting to my phone. Since then I have tried the following.

Turning on/off bluetooth on both devices, checking updates for the phonelink app and windows updates and finally, removing the iphone completely from setting and from phonelink app. I also ran the bluetooth troubler shooter to no avail. Now when I try to pair, I get stuck in the pair device screen on both the app and on the phonelink app on windows. I am running Windows 11.

Any help is appreciated!

 

PhoneLink

hi - I have been using PhoneLink to send messages, but since yesterday the send button is greyed out and I cannot send the messages I am typing. My phone is showing as "connected" in PhoneLink. What can I do? Thank you.

 

Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...

That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.
