Will this be triaged at some point?
I would love the ability to remove a device from mouse without borders for example, i did a typo when adding a device, and now i have FSD-LT-2824 (working) & FSD-LT-2924 (typo) this second one sits there trying to connect over and over and cant be removed. please add the ability to do this. i see this as an essential feature.
When this can be fixed?
Does anyone have a work around?
@ClaytonBen @TomaszGrzmilas @dazinger @kpriyanshu2003 I found a workaround by enabling the old UI you can reset your settings and remove all hosts then you need to re-add them
I find this annoying to see in the UI too, so my workaround currently is to edit the settings.json in the following path: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\MouseWithoutBorders
there seems to be a race condition for this file?!? Failed to read settings: The process cannot access the file 'C:\Users\uv\AppData\Local\Microsoft\PowerToys\MouseWithoutBorders\settings.json' because it is being used by another process.
My event logs are full of this!
Another vote for this feature.
