    Hi,

    In order for the map to work again on your Windows 10 device, you need to make sure that the Location is turned on. Here are the steps:

    • Open Settings.
    • Go to Privacy and then Location.
    • Turn Location on.
    • Scroll it down, make sure Maps is turn on under Choose apps which can use your location.

    Let us know how it goes.
