Windows 8.1 question

[BEN_UK]

Hello,

I've just brought a surface 2 running win8.1

When using internet explorer on the surface you can via tabs open on another device.

One of the computers listed is no longer running, it was virtual 8.1 install that I logged in using my windows account when I was testing/messing around with 8.1.

How can I remove this dead computer from the list ?

Thanks Ben

Thanks for the link but it appears MS have updated it since the guide was written

It looks like you cant remove devices now, have a read below;

I've lost access to one of my trusted devices. What should I do?


If you no longer have access to a device you've marked as trusted (for example, if your laptop is lost or stolen), we recommend that you remove all trusted devices from your Microsoft account at once, to help keep your account secure. (You can always trust devices again later.)


1.
Sign in to your Microsoft account on another device.

2.
Under Password and security information, tap or click Edit security info.

If you're prompted for a security code, enter it and tap or click Submit.

3.
Under Trusted devices, tap or click Remove all the trusted devices associated with my account.

4.
Tap or click Remove all trusted devices.

What happened to the list of trusted devices on my security info page?


Microsoft has made some changes to how you keep track of your trusted devices. For example, you no longer have to provide a unique name for each trusted device (or remember which is which!). You can also trust as many devices as you want – there's no longer a limit.

For these reasons, we've removed the list of trusted devices from the security info page. If you don't sign in to a particular trusted device at least once every two months, we'll automatically remove it from your Microsoft account. This helps keep your account secure in the event that a trusted device is lost or stolen without you realising it. You can always trust a device again later.
