    Locate device

    Hello,

    Are these the steps you're doing when trying to locate your device?

    • Go to
      account.microsoft.com/devices
      . If you're asked to sign in, use the same Microsoft account you used to sign in to the lost device.
    • Choose your device from the list, then select Find my device.
    • You'll see a map with a highlighted location. However, this may not be your device's current location. When a Microsoft device is turned on, we periodically save your device location, so check the
      Last seen at timestamp.
    • In the meantime, we'll automatically start a new search. Wait a bit and the new device location should appear.

    You can also have the option of locking the device to render it useless unless that the person knows your credentials. Here's how:

    • When you find your device on the map, select Lock > Next.
    • Type a lock-screen message for anyone who finds your device to see.
    • Select Lock. Note that anyone who finds your locked device can't sign in unless they are an admin for a Microsoft account already on the device.
    Reset your password
    Once your device is locked, you should reset your password for added security. Select
    Reset password and follow the instructions.

    I'll be waiting for your updates.
     
  3. Locating Device

    While viewing my registered devices listed in microsoft account page, it says that the information to locate my device was never updated. How do I fix this?

    device location

    Hi Rosdan,

    We need more information regarding your concern. Which device are you pertaining to? Are you talking about the
    Find my device feature of your Microsoft account? Are you talking about the location settings of your device? If you are using a desktop computer with no Wi-Fi capability, your location will be based on your IP address. Because of that, the
    results can widely vary in accuracy, resulting in an incorrect location for your device. You can set your address as your default location in the Maps app so that Windows, apps, and services can use it when the system could not detect a more exact location
    of your device. To do so, kindly follow these steps:

    • Launch the Maps app.
    • Click on
      How can I update the location of my device for my Micrsoft 365 account.  The device is... 7431b6a7-1a63-47ba-88dc-ef981ec4be2f.png
      , then click on
      Settings.
    • Under Default location, click on Change default location.
    • Click on Set default location, type in your current location, then click on
      Choose location.
    • Click on Set.

    Kindly get back to us with the information that we asked for so that we can assist you better with your concern.

    We look forward to your response.
