How delete messages that appear in Phone Link but are not on my phone?

I discovered that I had to go into my messages app on my phone and go to spam/blocked messages to delete those messages so they wouldn't show up in my link to windows on my pc.

Bizzarre!!!!

I have a Samsung S24+ and Lenovo laptop with WIN 11, so we're very close in equipment. I have never been able to delete anything from the WIN side, nothing. I can originate or reply but delete, as far as I know, is only on the phone.

I have found that anything on the phone side of Phone Link that is in Spam and Blocked or Archived will still show up on the WIN Phone Link with other messages, like they never left.

I don't know what the political texts are but I have been able to delete anything from the phone side of Phone Link and that eliminates them from the WIN side of Phone Link. I think you may be using the default SAMSUNG MESSAGES app that came with the phone. If so, go to the Play Store and download GOOGLE MESSAGES, then make that the default messaging app. (Your current messages will be visible in the Google Messaging App.)

Then open it and look for the small "face" on the right side, click on it and it will take you to the menu where you can access the Spam and Archived messages. Go into each section and delete the ones you don't want.

If you use Google Messages as default you need to switch to Samsung Messages and also delete from there. Then reselect Google Message as default. I have been doing this on my phone before I even used Phone Link as I also found I sometimes have messages on Samsung Messages that do not appear on Google Messages but that is another issue.

In Phone Link on your PC, scroll to the bottom of the message sender icons on the left side. If you have hidden messages you can unhide them, then delete them on your phone. I've not found a way to delete non-spam messages using the Phone Link app on the PC.

I found that you have yo go to messenger on phone and go to unknown in the search box, then delete the messages.
