I have installed the "Phone Link" app in Windows 11 and am trying to use it. The app works fine, but every time my PC starts up, I get the following message from Microsoft on my mobile phone: "Your Microsoft password requires attention". In order for Phone Link to work, enter your password. When I then enter the password on my mobile phone, I get "wrong password". This happens even though I am logged in with a Microsoft password on my PC. I have spoken to Microsoft customer support, who say that I need to uninstall the program, remove the app from my mobile phone and reinstall it. The problem is that the program is integrated into Windows and cannot be removed. When I now run it, it searches for the app on my mobile phone which does not exist. Does anyone have any suggestions?
