I have two computers. I'm facing the following issue: When I sign in to my Microsoft account, the devices do not appear under my account, and the “Find My Device” feature does not work. Please note that both computers are running Windows 11 and I have signed in with my Microsoft account on both. Also, account synchronization with Windows is enabled on both devices, and “Find My Device” is also activated on both computers.

However, when I go to Settings → Accounts in the Windows 11 interface, it shows that there are two devices connected to my Microsoft account. I try to remove the devices using the “Remove Device” button, but I get the error: TraceID: Kw/2j6OJu0aEFJ2n.126

    Hello Konstantinos. It is possible that the Windows 11 Find My Device feature will not work, even if the two devices are signed in to the same Microsoft account and are shown to be connected, due the either where abouts services, delay in sync, or some kind of registration error in the back end. While the devices can be viewed at Settings > Accounts, the feature is dependent on having a location actively flowing to Microsoft as well as Internet connectivity, and also device registration in Microsoft Cloud.

    If you are experiencing issues with the Find My Device feature, first ensure Location Services is turned on as explained under Settings > Privacy & Security > Location. Additionally, after a restart, toggle Find My Device off and back on. Also check to ensure both PCs are online and are not set in Battery Saver mode, since Battery Saver mode in some instances can cut off background updates.

    If issues are still present, sign out and back in to your Microsoft Account, which will refresh the sync token for the device. After the sign out and sign in, any issues might even be backend issues with Microsoft causing the TraceID issue you experienced. Note that if you log into account.microsoft.com/devices and at some point see your device, then wait for the sync to work (up to 48 hours).
