For those who don't want to play with powershell, admin privileges etc etc.

Simply open Microsoft Store, click My Library (bottom left), click Get Updates (top right). That's it.

    Thanks to the support for the help but this is why most software is so bad these days.

    Hey.. this is awesome... it's always great when the users have to reset the application to get it to work because the Developers didn't regression test it properly. That's always cool.

    The QR code in Link To Windows is also myseriously broken as well.

    Thanks, Juliet! This worked for me. Choosing 'Repair' in the advanced options screen did not work, but it did reveal a pending update. Installing the update also did not fix this problem.

    After reset, the phone and the computer have to reconnect. This was suprisingly chaotic, but I stayed calm and got through it in under 20 seconds. I can't recount all the screens and false starts, but just as a note to everybody having this problem, don't panic.

    I would suggest doing a soft reset of your app may help get things working again.

    On your PC:

    Select Start > Settings > Apps.

    In Apps & features, select the Phone Link app from the list.

    Select Advanced options > Reset.

    Relaunch Phone Link on your PC.

    If this doesn't work, you'll need to reset your apps on both devices.

    I hope this helps! :) Let me know the results
