I have reenabled phone link after not using it for many months. I now have two text messages in phone link that do not exist on my phone. How do I delete them? Thanks.

    Thanks for the tip. Although it deletes the message on phone message app, it does not delete the message from the Phone Link app.

    Give it a shot...... as Pierce Brosnan said in "Thomas Crown" - "nice morning, what the hell else we gotta do......."

    1^st^ – on phone

    -            tap messages

    -            tap your google account (logo, whatever)

    -            tap spam and blocked (if nothing appears) go to:

    -            archived (maybe hiding here)

    2^nd^ – if no success, then PC and Phone must be linked (oh goodie)

    -            on PC,  on Phone Link option, go to apps & select “Link to Windows”.

    -            Will reveal the phone screen.

    -            Then in upper left corner under APPS, view & tap “ Open Phone Screen”

    -            Actual phone screen appears

    3^rd^ – here an interaction between PC & phone takes place where unwanted messages

    can be deleted. 

             Having gone through this several times, different screens appear, as such

             some inconsistencies here depending on how the order one chooses Phone Link

             options are selected and using different phone (phone link procedure w/ Samsung S24+)
