    Can I use the serial number of a device remotely to see which accounts have used it?


    I lost my laptop and do not know if it has been stolen and used because the device finder from Microsoft says the location was 'never updated'. I was wondering if there is any way to know, using the serial number of the device, if another Windows account has been used to log in on that exact laptop.

    Serial number of self-built PC

    I'm confused?? Is the computer listed in the Microsoft Account/Devices page or not? If not, you have to register it and it may take a couple of days to register in the Microsoft Store.

    serial number?

    Hello Ahmad,

    I am Jaspreet Singh.

    If you had logged in and added the device to your Microsoft account the serial number will be listed here : https://account.microsoft.com/devices/device?de...

    If you did not do so or the device is not present there you may find the serial number in the bill of the laptop.

But I don't want to catch myself...
