How to stop Yourphone.exe process in Windows 10?

Anonymous

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 ...

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

Android phones (e.g. Nexus, Pixel) sync with Google stuff, unless you've got something pre-bloated like Samsung. Have never felt the need to sync with my Widows PC.

I tried using the Windows Store at the weekend, to get a free app for reading Minidump files on a friend's PC that was having problems. It was incredibly difficult to use! Put me off using the Store for life, not that I'd ever used it before.

Actually, we have Windows phones, and they have always synced up with the PC. This app is installed for people with Android phones - I guess they couldn't be expected to go to the Windows Store and search.

But would you please tell us that what was that program, what it does?

Presumably it only works with Windows phones, which no one uses! Can't think of anything else I'd want to sync with my PC.
