Windows 10: I live in Lake St. Louis, MO 63367 but my location on my desktop shows my location to be...

why does my desktop show a different city location than the city and state I live in currently

:)

 

my pc location is showing the wrong location

I have the same issue. it lists our location at our old house we left 3 months ago.

it's fine using our phones (which have internal GPS), but all our PC's are showing the wrong location.

we have 1 on windows 10 and 1 on windows 11, both are wrong.

they are wrong in edge and chrome.

they are wrong in the weather apps and anything which uses the location.

I have followed the common steps of setting the location, of refreshing dns, or ip, I've changed all entries to location I can find.

even on websites to try to find a local branch, it suggests them near our old house.

Have just spent an hour on the phone with our ISP (EE) who have nothing more to suggest!

 

PC stores in St. Louis

If you are referring to St. Louis, MO, I would highly recommend Microcenter in the Brentwood Promenade for either having something built or getting a prebuilt system.

I used to work there and know just about everyone who works in there. Doesn't get much better than that really for the area.

We have some Best Buys around but nothing like Microcenter.

They can build the PC there and provide support for it as well.

 

PC reports location in different state

My PC is reporting its location in Salt Lake City, UT. I live in Kansas. This is a problem.

It affects my time zone and location services. I have been unable to force my default location to change.

Any suggestions?
