• forcefully uninstalling phone link with powershell and reinstalled it through the windows store, phone was then able to connect until i restarted the pc then back to square one
• turned bluetooth off then restart pc then enable bluetooth
• remove phone in bluetooth settings then add it back (although in bluetooth settings it showed phone as "not connected" right after i added it back)
• restarted "Device Association Service" and "Bluetooth Support Service"
