My new laptop is linked to my old one and is using up storage, I don't want that on the new laptop.

To unlink your new laptop from your old one and prevent it from using up storage, you can sign out of your account on the new laptop. This will disconnect the Cloud PC connection and ensure that the new device does not have access to any data from the old one. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Go to the Settings on your new laptop.
2. Navigate to Accounts and then select Your info.
3. Sign out of your Microsoft account.

By doing this, your new laptop will no longer be linked to the old one, and it will not use any storage or data from the previous account.

If you want to ensure that no data is retained, you may also consider resetting the new laptop to factory settings after signing out, which will remove all data and applications.
