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.

    No problem. Looks like you didn't read my post above where I let people know that bug seems to be fixed and provided the exact version number of the app free of this bug.

    I don't think you've read all the threads here but everyone has stated that it has been updated through the Microsoft store.

    The latest updates do not work and there is no way to roll it back and everyone has tried everything and simply put, the app is **** and Microsoft doesn't seem to give a damn so people are going to alternative third party applications and Microsoft is fixes are going to lose a lot of people as customers.

    I was able to update through the app (did not work until recently) and it seems to have functionality again.

    Win11 -> Phone Link -> Settings -> About -> Update

    The version that works for me is: Phone Link 1.22052.553.0

    It's Microsoft Store application, so please update it through Microsoft Store. Windows Update does not update applications, only OS components and drivers.

    Seems Microsoft fixed the issue with the recent update Phone Link 1.22052.553.0 - now links are clickable on Win11. I did not have to reset anything, did not pair, just updated and now everything is working fine.

    Text selection fixed too, Copy/Select All works like a charm.
