  1. how can i "unlink" two computers that share the same microsoft account?


    i have a laptop and a pc, the laptop is fairly new and this is the first time i've had two computers at once. when setting up my laptop, i used the same microsoft account as the one on my pc. now, every time i install something on one, it will appear on the desktop of the other one too. the backgrounds always change together as well, and it is becoming really really annoying. is there a way for me to turn this off?

    :)

  3. Cannot access shared network drive


    I could scream! so much time wasted on this stupid error, as if time is not precious enough!
    It probably would work fine if I could see the other computer! But I cannot see the other computer!

    Unlink an old android phone from my pc

    I go thru the suggested steps: Start - Settings - Phone - Unlink this PC.

    When I first open the "your phone" screen the old phone is listed. Not sure if the phone listed is suppose to be selectable or not, but my is not. When I select "Unlink this PC" the phone listed is removed. When I select "Add Phone" the old phone still
    shows. I have removed the old phone from my Microsoft Account. I have rebooted after unlink this pc but I still cannot remove my old phone.
