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.

    I have a Dell laptop running Windows 11 Pro with a NVIDA GeForce RTX 3060 card. If I change setting to high contrast themes, then the link works as you found. I too do not like high contrast themes so will live with link not working until Microsoft see fit to fix the problem with the phone link to Windows.

    Yep, that works but as you say it is hard to live with the high contrast. I'll stick with no links until Microsoft get round to fixing it, if ever.

    I got it to work by changing the settings in Windows rather than Phone Link itself. Thanks.

    Thank you - that worked. I was using the contrast settings in the Phone Link settings instead of Windows itself.

    CAva224,
    did you try high contrast ones? It's in settings/accessibility/contrast themes if I remember...
