    Same here. Not sure why a "delete device" button is not available.

    I've tried every fix under the sun including deleting all signs of it out of the registry but nothing works. It just keeps showing up. How hard is it to just add a remove device button.

    Hello all,

    I have just deleted the app from my computer using the following way. I found it off Reddit from someone called scripted00.

    I never post, but this was annoying me, tried the reset, terminate, etc. I couldn't select the phone as it would not respond to clicking! Nothing worked, Only just linked my photos to Phonelink but it would open without a password, didn't feel it was safe etc etc. I was able to disable it from startup by pressing Windows and X and then select Task manager, search for Phonelink and right click to disable. That works also.

    I did this below, copy exactly as below and paste into the Powershell. Once done, I restarted the computer, searched for Phonelink and no longer there, UNINSTALLED!! Hope this helps anyone. Thanks

    1. Open PowerShell as Administrator.

    Go to Start Menu > PowerShell > Right click > Run as administrator

    1. Run the following command in PowerShell and press enter:

    Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.YourPhone -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage

    Phone link will be removed from your device.
