    Phone popup spam when i resume from hibernation

    Windows 10 phone link seems to be causing popup spam Basically its the same problem as here...except that i no longer get the random popup spam, the popup spam only occurs when i resume from hibernation. So for example, lets say i plug in my phone, i then disconnect the phone and hibernate my PC. When i resume from hibernation, i will get popup spam like in the screenshot complaining that my Poco M5 is disconnected : https://i.imgur.com/DryEjP2.jpg I already have phone link disabled. I have never installed any phone software at all. The only way around this seems to be to restart the PC after i disconnect my phone which is really not what i want to do. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this further? If i use process explorer to target the popup windows, it just says the process is "shell infrastructure host" which is not descriptive. I dont understand why im only getting the popup spam lately, i never used to get this before. Perhaps some windows update is the culprit... (Windows version and all that info is in the linked post)

    Im having a problem where win 10 will spam me with these popups at random intervals. This seems to happen even if i do not have my phone plugged in, and devices shows that my phone is not connected. I did a search and found posts mentioning that this seems to be related to windows phone link, a built in app. So I tried disabling it :

    It is also disabled in startup. But this still keeps happening. I also tried repairing and resetting the app, but it only causes the notification spam to trigger shortly afterwards. Any ideas on how to stop phone link from doing this? I have no phone software installed.
