Link to Windows is a useful service if you want to receive notifications on your phone while working on your computer. It works well, does not take much time to install and can be used directly. If you've used older Samsung models and don't see this option in settings, try using Microsoft's Your Phone Companion, which is similar to Link to Windows.
