I have noticed that … Yourphone.exe … is running all the time.

Can this app be stopped from starting and if so … How do you stop it? ...

Thanks for any help ...

Ken

Hi Kenneth

Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Start Menu)

Go to Privacy - Background Apps

From there you should be able to stop the Your Phone App and other Apps form running in the background of Windows 10

    Thanks Caleb... I have to admit I found the solution on a separate website after a frantic search and just thought I'd save everyone else the hassle. If I had known that fix myself I wouldn't have been looking in this forum in the first place! My PC keyboard doesn't seem to have that 'pipe' symbol, as you call it, and I wasn't able to simply copy and paste the command either. Had to actually type it in and be mindful of the spaces, etc. Weird. Oh well, at least it works! Cheers!
