Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

Ensure to have the correct settings for region and location. Ensure to correct the date and time on the computer. Further ensure to install all pending Windows Updates on the computer and restart the computer to check if this helps.

I would suggest you to follow the below steps and check if helps:

• 
  Press Windows+X key on the keyboard
  
• 
  Then click on Control Panel
  
• 
  Then select Region under location
  Tab select or make sure the home location is set correctly.
  

Hope this information helps and let us know if you have any further queries related to Windows we will be glad to help you further.

Location service is greyed out

Hi Shahriar,

Thank you for responding.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused for you, I suggest you to try the below troubleshooting steps and check If it helps.

Step 1: Steps to turn on the Location settings.

• Login as an administrator.
• Press Windows key, type Location settings and select
  Change location settings.
• Check whether Location for this device is On by clicking on
  Change.
• Also turn on Location as well.

Step 2: And as you are unable to set the service Geolocation service to automatic, I suggest you to run SFC scan and check.

System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

Follow the below steps:

• 
  Right click on the Start button, click on
  Command Prompt (Admin).
  
• 
  Type “sfc /scannow” without the quotes and hit
  Enter.
  
• 
  After the scan, restart the computer and check for the issue.
  

Try to set the service to automatic by following the steps provided in the above post by Praveen Venugopal.

Hope it helps. Kindly update the status of the issue, we will be happy to help you.
