Windows 10: Find my device on Windows 10 desktop

Find my device Is not available under settings, update and security on my desktop PC. Whereas it is for my laptop. Can only one be tracked or is it suppressed because it's a desktop? I'm not bothered, I'm hardly going to mis place my huge desktop but was just curious

cheers,

Why isnt Find my Device on my Desktop version PC

Log into your Microsoft Account through a web browser. Select Devices.

From there your "loseable" devices should be listed with the option to find them.

Well you can suggest it on the Windows Feedback app.

Start -> All Apps -> Windows Feedback

 

Hello Wayne, *Smile

Yeah, Find My Device currently only appears to be available for portable Windows 10 PCs such as laptops or tablets for now.

Fantastic thank you! At least I know its the norm now

 

I have a newly purchased Wiindows 10 Asus ux305 laptop and it does not have "find my device." Is there any way to install it?

 

Hello jrak, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

What build of Windows 10 do you have installed? "Find My Device" is only available starting with build 10565.

I have build 10240.

 

Yep, that would be why then.

 

My computer updated tonight and I can see "find my device" now. However, when I try to log into my Microsoft account, it indicates that I have the wrong password (I am typing in the correct password!!) Very frustrating!

 

To reset your MS account password if needed.

I'll try that. After the upgrade, my laptop won't wake up from the sleep mode. I'll need to fix that first.
