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

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.
+1 (Galaxy S24/Win11)
Same for me for the last few week. Galaxy S23.
Was working fine until a few weeks ago.
Re-install version 1.24111.82.0 (it absolutely fixes the problem.
