  1. Maps are not showing online maps only offline


    Hi! On my computer Maps only show a lightblue screen if I try to use online maps. I tried to download offline maps and then It worked. I removed the offline maps and the maps are not showing again. I have access to Internet and my computer does not think it is connected to a metered connection. I also turned "Connection with prices" or whatever it is called in english using Swedish lang in my computer on but no change.


    I tried the "Remove all maps" button on the control panel and also manually deleted all the files in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\MapData but it still not showing the map.


    I also tried to reset the Maps application Start Settings Apps Maps Advanced options Reset but no difference.


    What else should I try except do a fresh install of Windows 10 of course.

    :)

  3. NO Maps Offline

    Hi FrancoTerracciano,

    Follow these steps on how to use Offline Maps:

    1. Download maps before you go offline. Then later, search for places and get directions in the Maps app, even without Internet access.
    2. On your Windows 10 PC or phone, select Settings
      > Apps, and then choose
      Offline maps.
    3. Select Download maps and follow the instructions.
    4. On Start
      , select Maps to search for places and get directions on the downloaded maps.
    Let us know how it works.

    Regards.

    Disable Offline Map downloads and updates


    Yeah, that disables the auto download and update....which is good. I'm trying to take it a step further by greying out the options for offline maps altogether.

    With that GPO set users can still manually download...
