Windows 10: Remove Microsoft Phone Link?

I have no intention to use my phone on my computer. I have disabled Phone Link in Startup, yet it runs anyway--and uses 30 MB of Memory. I can select and End Task and it disappears, and the total Memory in use decreases by 30 MB. But I shouldn't have to do this every time I reboot my computer. Question: Is there an uncomplicated and safe way to remove this program or "uninstall" it? And if so, is there any good reason why to do so would be a bad idea?

Remove Microsoft linked account in Windows 10

This question refers to steps 3 and 4 in the thread How to rename the User folder in Windows 10?

The troublesome steps are:

3) Remove original Microsoft linked account

4) Link local account to Microsoft account if you wish

I was stuck on those 2 steps. I couldn't find a way in Windows 10 to remove the Microsoft account.

Any ideas?

Hi Dave,

To help you with your concern in deleting your Microsoft account from a device, we'd like to ask a few questions:

• Have you tried deleting your Microsoft account directly from the old laptop?
• How did you go about removing the account from the old laptop?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you create a new local account with admin rights first, then remove the current Microsoft account by following the steps on this

article.

We look forward to your response.
