texting from Windows 10 PC

Many thanks for your quick response.

Reviews of suggested software are mixed!  It requires registering from smartphone.

Ideally, registering and using from PC rather than smartphone involvement.

You can try Google Voice (google.com/voice) to see if it meets your needs.

Microsoft has software to allow just that. It's called "Your Phone."

And yes, you need to link it to your phone using an app on your phone, but after that you should be able to text from your PC.

But if you don't have a phone and just want to send SMS messages to people using your PC, then I second Google Voice as an option.

I have looked at Google Voice, and that appears to do the trick.  Thanks!

I didn't post that as he didn't want to link to his phone.  But I love it since discovering it!
