Windows 10: Microsoft Edge maps location HORRIBLE

Edge location was working fine until last week when all of a sudden, in Google Maps and Bing Maps, Edge thinks I am in Florida. I am in Tennessee. I have tried everything I can think of to fix this including removing Edge profile and creating a new one. All Windows 10 location services are ON. I have set Windows Default Location. I have cleared Windows location history. Google Chrome browser correctly identifies my location. This is an Edge Browser issue, not Windows.Edge Version 91.0.864.59 Official build 64-bitWindows 10 HomeVersion: 21H1OS Build: 19043.1055
