The best chance to find your laptop is using Microsoft’s tracking tool, Find My Device, a GPS-enabled Windows feature that pinpoints your device’s location on a map. The Find My Device Windows feature works if:
You use a Microsoft account to sign in to the laptopYou can access the administrator accountThe laptop is powered on and connected to the internetThe Location setting is on
Sign Into Microsoft to Locate Lost Device
Windows 10 syncs the location of the laptop to the cloud periodically. You can locate a device only if you have an administrator account on it. Open a browser on any other computer and follow the steps below.
Lock Your Dell Laptop Remotely
Lock the device and reset the password for an added layer of security. This works even if Find my device is disabled and you cannot locate the laptop on the map. If you successfully retrieve your lost laptop, you can sign into it again with your Microsoft administrator account as usual. Reset your Microsoft account sign-in as soon as you lock the computer remotely.
