    My Phone thinks YourPhone is connected--my PC wants me to connect


    I just added a Bluetooth dongle to my PC and downloaded the YourPC app to my Win 10 PC and my Android 11 phone. (However, I had trouble downloading to my phone from the link MS provided, tried installing it from the Play Store, and discovered it was already installed.

    But the phone app says "Your phone and PC are linked," but the PC app insists I pair them--and pairing does not seem to work because they are already paired.

    Should I just uninstall and reinstall the phone app?

    Hello @Newmaven,

    That is probably the best thing to try first, just in case there was a problem initially with the download or installation.


    Have a look at this . . .
