Windows 10: Maps is showing wrong location

The location won't update on the Maps app on my laptop. We are in Laval Quebec, but it seems that the Maps app is showing Lansing IL, United States. I tried to update it manually and it did not work.

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!

 

my location on maps app is wrong.

Laptops show wrong Location in all Maps apps

Yesterday all four of Windows 10 laptops in my home started showing the wrong location in Google maps, Bing maps, Mapquest, windows 10 maps app, etc. Note that this happens regardless of windows login or Google signed in or not, it happens in Firefox and Edge browser, but does NOT happen with Chrome browser, and android phones/tablet are not affected... I am currently in Stockton, CA but maps is showing my location as a specific house address in Oakland, CA which is 50 miles away. I have NEVER been to this address.... So far I have: -cleared cookies/cache in Firefox and Edge. -flush DNS. -rebooted my Xfinity MODEM. -rebooted Netgear Wifi Router. -rebooted laptops. -turned location off/on all laptops. -signed out/in of microsoft accounts on laptops. -changed google password, force sign out of all google devices and deleted old devices from google security site. Any ideas?
