Windows 10: How can I limit my foreign news by continent and or country?

Trying to view foreign news here is hit or miss. I want to align my foreign news to those two regions: Sahel Africa and Eastern Europe EU side, When clicking on foreign, I see much repeat of US news which is not pertinent. I can always go to France 24, local news on facebook or even al-jazeera which seems more factual which shows in my feeds. How can I regionalize foreign news to my own personal and family interests?

Difference between 'Continent' and 'Country' when downloading

I couldn't find an answer to this on either this forum or on another medium.



My phone is C5, I live in the Netherlands and I use the most recent updates of my firmware, Nokia Maps and Nokia Suite.



On the Maps-tab in Nokia Suite (also in former Ovi Suite), we can download:

-map-data country per country;

-every country in a continent by clicking 'Download All' in the top of the screen;

(with both of these, the countries indeed are downloaded separately when I check the "downloading"-tab)

-the whole continent at once by dragging-and-dropping the name of the Continent to the "On device" part of the screen (then, I see only e.g. "Americas" in the downloading-tab)

It all starts downloading, works perfectly.



Sometimes I noticed a difference between the data in the application when downloading the continent-at-once and downloading country-by-country (or clicking 'Download All'). However, I can't pinpoint it. There's also a difference in the total amount (MB's)
of data stored extra on the device.

Is it that some countries (say, "Nepal" or "Ecuador") are not included in the country-by-country, but are in the continent-download?

Is it that the continent only downloads all the low-detail info (so until you zoom in), while the separate country-by-country gives me the exact opposite; High detail but no 'terrain-view' if I zoom out?



Sorry for a lot of text... , and thanks for any advice!

 

Foreign Disk

Hi,

You will only lose the data in the Foreign Disk once you convert it to a "Basic Disk" in Disk Management.

To allow the disk to be recognized, follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key and type "Disk Management" and click on it.
• Right-click on the foreign disk and select "Import Foreign Disks..."
  
  

Feel free to post back with more information.

 

Cortana doesn't work in a foreign country

Hi Christophe,

Thank you for being part of Windows 10.

I would suggest you to check the following settings and may sure they are all aligned to the same languages and region:

• Go to Settings > Time & Language >
  Region & Language.
  • Check the Country or region settings.
  • Check the Windows display language (set as French)settings.
• Then go to Settings > System >
  Speech.
  • Check the Spoken language (set as French)
    settings.

For the Windows Store error 0x80072EFD code:
