I have noticed that … Yourphone.exe … is running all the time.

Can this app be stopped from starting and if so … How do you stop it? ...

Thanks for any help ...

Ken

    Hi Kenneth

    Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Start Menu)

    Go to Privacy - Background Apps

    From there you should be able to stop the Your Phone App and other Apps form running in the background of Windows 10

    The app still seems to sometimes show up in Task Manager, though.
