Using Phone Link on computer it creates a group in chat - and does not send message to recipient

Phone is up to date

Computers are both up to date with MS update

BUT

Using Phone Link when I send a message to one of the people I message often rather than send message it creates a group. (see below)

On my phone it then shows as a group chat - which I can't edit

Works fine on my phone - but not on Phone Link - on both computers I own. Screenshot of how it ends up below.

I also have quite a few messages where both the name of recipient and my phone number comes up - just a bit of a pain.

I'd really appreciate any help on this

Thanks heaps

Gary

    Maybe if we all send some feedback? This thread seems to be ignored

    I'm having the exact same issue with Phone Link 1.24121.85.0, Windows 11 24H2 and Samsung Galaxy S24.

    I'd rather not have to install old versions to fix this issue. How can this bug get some attention at Microsoft?

    Hi TatSeto, I believe the only way to overcome the issue, at present, is to download a previous version of Phonelink. This is only available from a 3rd party as mentioned above. I have not done this so I'm not using phonelink until Microsoft fixes it! It's been well over a month since it started happening, and reported, you would think Microsoft could have done something by now.

    I have this issue starting this week of Feb 3rd, 2025, and driving me crazy. I still have not figured a way out.
