Windows 10: Why can't l add my phone number because it says my country code is not supported

Why can't l add my phone number because it says my country code is not supported

My Phone Update Phone Number - Country Not Listed

I am trying to update my My Phone account settings, but having clicked on the "update" link next to the picture of my phone I am unable to input my mobile phone number as my country (and therefore the country code) is not listed. Can this list be updated,
or is there a way to enter a number that is not listed under the country options? My country code (for the Falkland Islands) is: 00 500

 

Country Code

With the phone, I'm not sure. try looking in Outlook on your desktop. In my country we don't have area codes so I'm not sure how all this stuff really works. In Outlook, there's an option to add country/region code to numbers.

• In Contacts, on the Actions menu, point to Call Contact, and then click
  New Call.
• Click Dialing Options.
• Select the Automatically add country/region code to local phone numbers check box.
  The country/region code added is for the selection in the Country/region list on the
  General tab of the Edit Location dialog box (in the New Call dialog box, click
  Dialing Properties, and then click Edit).
  

Note If the Automatically add country/region code to local phone numbers check box is not available, Microsoft Outlook doesn't recognize the phone number format for the specified country code and cannot automatically format phone numbers.



Hope this helps.

 

Using Phone Link and country codes

When I attempt to send a message in Phone Link it doesn't permit me to type in a ten digit number without going to my contact list in Google. When a contact is pulled up it includes the country code which invalidates the call. The country code cannot be eliminated in the Google contacts.
