Find your lost phone
If you misplaced your phone, or are afraid it's been stolen, use Find My Phone to locate your

phone, and lock or delete all data from it remotely.
You need to have your Microsoft account on your phone.
1. On your computer, go to account.microsoft.com.

2. Sign in with the same Microsoft account as on your phone.

3. Select your phone from the device list.
You can:
• Locate your phone on a map
• Make your phone ring, even if silent mode is switched on
• Lock your phone, and set it to show a contact number and a message, so it can be returned

to you

• Delete all data from your phone remotely
The available options may vary.

Tip: Set your phone to automatically save its location every few hours. If your phone

runs out of battery, you can still view its last saved location. Swipe down from the top

of the screen, and tap All settings > Update & security > Find My Phone.

Protect your data with device encryption

Swipe down from the top of the screen, tap All settings > System > Device

encryption, and switch Device encryption to On .
If you selected the recommended settings while setting up your phone, device encryption is

off by default. When switched on, device encryption prevents a hacker from accessing your

data or getting the files they need to steal your passwords.
