    Can't change phone in Your Phone app


    I've just bought a new Android 10 phone, and want to link it to the Your Phone app on my Windows 10 PC, replacing the previous phone. I have followed both sets of instructions here:

    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/119649-unlink-iphone-android-phone-windows-10-pc.html

    ...but after selecting "Unlink this PC" then "Add a phone" my previous phone is displayed again.

    If I look at my devices at https://account.microsoft.com/devices/ I don't see my old phone - only my Windows 10 PC.


    How can I remove the link to my old phone and add my new phone?

    :)

    I think I'll put a list of people's favourite apps in the OP, starting with my own until I get some suggestions, but you can take a look at the Windows Phone app store at the top apps to see what's popular http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store

    You are both now added, welcome! *Toast :toast:

    Phones and their Thinness....

    Yep Indeed. Look at THIS Phone. With a 7060mah Battery! Though the Cameras are not great but that Battery Life

    Just Note before buying... Phones from China only work with AT&T, T-Mobile, and Others except Verizon and Sprint

    Supported phones for Windows 10 Mobile Insider Preview


    Your list confirms my phone is eligible, Lumia 521. The windows Insider App fails after ~ 15 seconds, restores data and gives me error 80073cf9. I trouble shot this and went thru all the steps mentioned on several websites including MS without any luck. Short of a hard reset, this is where I am now. Suggestions appreciated.
