Windows 10: Unable to Pair iPhone and PC

I was using Phone Link to pair my iPhone and PC when it just stopped working. When I tried to use Phone Link to pair them again it would not work.

Bluetooth Pairing issue with iPhone

I try to pair my iPhone with my PC. The PC says I am paired, but the iPhone keeps swapping the PC between other devices and the list of paired devices.

Help?

 

iPhone 11 wont' pair with Phone Link (O/S Windows 11)

I am unable to pair my iPhone with Phone Link.

• Windows 11 is updated
  
• Link to Windows is updated and installed on my iPhone
  
• PC is paired with the iPhone, and vice versa
  

I don't see Phone Link listed as an installed app under settings

Phone Link is listed as a default app under the settings

Phone Link is turned on as a start up, although it is listed as "not measured"

The pairing was successful until last fall and now isn't working.
