    Suddenly my computer is answering my cell phone calls. This new and entirely unintended. I was trying to find out what was happening to my MS Calendar events and was trying different things to recover data. I was not using a MS login and was able to prove on another computer that data in my case was saved locally. I used the power button to turn off my computer mistakenly thinking it was not on but my monitor was still connected to my other computer. Oh Well lost some settings font related. Now this. I get or make a call and the computer wants to become involved. Since I do not have a microphone connected this is more than inconvenient.

    Why has this happened and what the hexx did I do to myself?? I do not use the MS Phone App

    Just because you don't know where you are going doesn't mean any road will get you there.

      If it is a Dell PC, do you have Dell Mobile Connect?

      The problem is your cell phone has been linked to Win10’s Phone app.

      Here’s a link that explains how to unlink your PC from your phone.

        Unlink a device in the Your Phone app

      You should also open the bluetooth setting on your phone and “unlink” your phone from your PC.

      Of course as I had no linked phones this did not seem like it was gonna work so I did an App reset. Did not pickup on me so hopefully I am Ok.

      BTW I thought there was a way of signing in to an MS account for a temporary non-repeating login. Am I remembering wrong?
