This fixed mine...reset app.
Phone Link won't generate a QR code or PIN
I have Windows 11, and I'm trying to set up Phone Link between my PC and my Android. However, during setup I'm asked from the Phone Link app to generate a QR Code to scan on my phone or a PIN to enter manually, but neither ever appears.
Eventually, it gives me a "no network detected" error with "try again" as my only option, but my network is just fine - it has no problem loading the "Troubleshooting the Phone Link app" website, Windows reports no network problems, and all other apps using the network have no problems.
I have repaired and reset the Phone Link app from Windows 11 settings, but nothing changes.

2023-05-12T16:21:18+00:00 Thanks for your response. I reset the app. That did not help. I cannot reinstall the app
as it is grayed out and it does not give me the ability to delete and reinstall. If there is a way please let me know. When
I try to open the phone app I get blank white box.
