Windows Codex app is missing Codex mobile / remote control pairing entry.

Version: OpenAI.Codex 26.623.11225.0
Platform: Windows, Microsoft Store version
Account: ChatGPT Plus personal account

Expected:
The desktop app should show “Set up Codex mobile”, “Remote Control”, a pairing code, QR code, or an option to allow mobile devices to connect.

Actual:
The ChatGPT mobile app has Codex and asks me to get a pairing code from the Codex desktop app, but the Windows desktop app does not show any mobile pairing or remote control option.

Settings > Connections only shows SSH connections.
Settings > Computer Control only shows local app control permissions.

I have already tried:

  • Checked Microsoft Store updates
  • Confirmed the app is on the latest version
  • Restarted Codex
  • Switched UI language to English
  • Confirmed the same ChatGPT account is used
  • Submitted in-app feedback
