    Windows is trying to turn everything into a phone number.


    It puts it in a box and if you touch it, it offers to help you call. It was bad enough when it would do it to actual phone numbers, but it will do it with any string of numbers. Today, it turned a zoom link into a bizarre box of numbers that renders the actual link unreadable. It shows up this way on both Edge and Chrome.How do I make it stop? I have looked through every possible setting and conducted multiple searches with no usable results.Running Windows 10 EnterpriseVersion 22H2OS Build 19045.3208

    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

    Trouble saving voicemail number

    To access my voicemail it is my phone number, a pause and 4 digit pin.



    I did the following steps:

    • Turned off default voicemail number
    • Added a , (for pause) at end of my phone number
    • Added the 4 digit pin
    I get the following error message We're having trouble saving your voicemail number right now. Try again later.



    Any suggestions on how to correct this?

    When my phone fails to upgrade I just keep trying. One upgrade took 3 or 4 tries.
