    PhoneLink retaining deleted messages


    Hello everyone. As of the last few months, Phonelink has started retaining text messages that have been deleted from my phone. S24 Ultra. I've tried resetting the app, uninstalling and reinstalling the app to no avail. The messages remain in phonelink. So it has to be caching them somewhere. Does anyone know how to wipe the cache clean getting all messages out of phonelink? Thanks

    :)

  2. PhoneLink

    hi - I have been using PhoneLink to send messages, but since yesterday the send button is greyed out and I cannot send the messages I am typing. My phone is showing as "connected" in PhoneLink. What can I do? Thank you.

  3. deleting texts on my computer using MS phone link

    Even when I delete the messages on my phone and then click the "Refresh" Link the message deleted from my phone but still on my cxomputer won't go away, If there isn't a way to accomplish this SOON I will delete PhoneLink as it will fill up with old deleted messages. I DO NOT expect PhoneLink to detete message from my phone, just clear out its list of old messages. Really problematic implementation!

    Deleting contacts from Windows 10


    When you say Windows Mail Live are you referring to Mail app or Windows Live Mail?

    I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.


    • Open Windows Live Mail.
    • Press Ctrl + 3 using your keyboard. Right-click on the contact to delete it if it is a single contact.
    • Highlight all contacts by pressing Ctrl + A.
    • Click Delete located on the Ribbon bar.
    • Click OK when you see the message These contacts will also be deleted from Hotmail, Messenger, and other Windows Live services.

    After following the steps above, all your contacts that you have manually added to your account will be deleted however, contacts coming from third-party sites such as Facebook will not be deleted unless you remove Facebook from your account.

    For Mail app:

    Open People app then delete the contact.

    Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
