I need assistance removing multiple computers from my Link to Windows app. I have a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. There are 4 computers linked to my Link to Windows app on this phone. These computers are actually previous Windows installations on my current PC. I've reinstalled Windows multiple times on this PC, and I can no longer access these previous installations to disconnect them properly. I need a way to remove these inaccessible computers from my Linked Account.

How can I remove these inaccessible computers from my Link to Windows app on my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra without having direct access to the previous Windows installations?

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Connect Phone and PC

    Hi Richard Hammers.

    Thank you for your reply. I understand that you did not find your computer device information on the Devices page of your Microsoft account.

    In my previous reply I was referring to the following page

     

    If there is a device that you are no longer currently using, please remove it via the Remove button in the image.

    Also, if you have OneDrive synchronization turned on for your computer, turn it off.

    Also, you can try restoring your phone to factory settings after backing up the data in it.

    I noticed that you have provided feedback on this issue, please provide me with the feedback link and I will vote for you, which will help the development team to take note of the issue and make relevant adjustments.

    Thank you for your understanding and support.

    Best regards,

    I have the same issues, unable to delete stale linked computers from my android phone.

    Also, I'm having issues connecting a computer with my phone, my laptop connects fine.

    I have tried reinstalling Windows and it is still an issue.

    I have exact same problem please have the app developer fix the issue. Their appears to be no way to manage devices on the Windows Link App and due to a lost connection and reconnecting I now have two of the same pc one shows linked and the other disconnected.
