  1. Change default paste location on desktop


    When i copy something and paste it on the desktop, it goes to the top left corner, pushing all my icons to make space. I want it to be put at the end of the list on the desktop,without affecting the location of other files.

  4. Change default paste location on desktop

    How Do I change the weather location on Desktop?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    In Weather app by default it takes the system location. You have to search manually to look out for weather of particular location.

    I suggest you to set your region and language and check if it helps:


    • Go to Control Panel and select Clock, Region and Language.

    • Click on Language to set your language as default.

    • Next select Region and in the dropdown select country as
      your region.
    There is no option to change the location of the Weather in Weather app. I suggest you to give your feedback in feedback app.

    Thanks.
