Windows 10: Cortana tells wrong time

This seems simple, but I can't find any way to get it right. Cortana can't seem to tell me the right time.

I live in Ypsilanti, MI. Somehow Cortana thinks I live in Ypsilanti Twp., ND. So when I ask her what time it is, she's giving me a time from the North Dakota time zone, which is an hour behind my Michigan time zone.

The clock on my computer has the correct time and time zone.
I ensured that the address settings in my Hotmail account is correct.
I ensured that my Bing settings knows my correct address.
I added my address to Favorite Places in Cortana and set it as "Home".

Nothing seems to get Cortana to give me the right time (or home location).

So where do I go to correct my home location for Cortana?

Cortana's timer not working

I just installed windows 10 on my laptop and I've been trying to use Cortana's timer but it is not able to start the timer.

When I say "set a 10 minutes timer", Cortana just tells me "Sorry, something went wrong. Try later".

Instead when I tell Cortana to set a timer, a window with the times setting appears and it ask me for how long and, after I answer, it just blocks again.

What's wrong with Cortana?

 

Why doesn't Cortana work most of the time?

I tried this about 20 times on two devices: "Hey Cortana, tell me a joke." Cortana understood me, but only once on each device did Cortana actually tell me a joke. The other times I got "Sorry, the internet and I aren't talking right now" or "Something went
wrong. Try again a little bit" or "Something went wrong. Try again in a little bit." I have a reliable high-speed Internet connection.

Is the Cortana server overwhelmed or something? It's obviously of no use when it takes an hour to get a response.

 

Check your location in the Weather App and your location settings;
make sure there is not two locations in the Weather App.

 

Yep, that's not it. It's set correctly. Thanks for the thought, though.

 

What device do you have? Check to make sure your PC is set for the correct Time zone.

I had a similar glitch once; Try something:
Go to Settings/Time & Language, turn Off-'Set time automatically' (1), click the 'Change' button (2), if it stays greyed out, scroll through the menu on the left for a minute then try it again (3), then change and save the time; then... change it all back to defaults.
Sounds crazy but it worked for me, maybe throw a couple Restarts in there too! *Smile

 

As I said in the original post, "The clock on my computer has the correct time and time zone."

 

Yeah, so did mine, but I fiddled with it anyway and it fixed the glitch.

 

Doesn't sound any crazier than tons of other experiences I've had with computers. I don't have access to the computer in question right now, but I'll give that a try when I can. (In a couple hours.)

 

Nope, it didn't have any affect. I read on another site that Cortana gets her Time info from Bing rather than from System Time. But I did try it, to no avail. *Sad

 

strangely enough I have just tried and have the same issue

I am in the UK but when I ask Cortana (or Bing) what the time is it gives me India time (5.5 hours ahead of me)

PC Time and timezone are correct, bing has my location and weather app has my correct location

 

Thanks for chiming in, Paul. There's strength in numbers. *Smile Hopefully someone can come up with an idea for us.

 

Same issue on my Windows 10 phone

 

Do you live somewhere with the same name as somewhere in India?
