Windows Community


Recently my MSN App has changed its default city location will in the Start Menu Lemay, MO





However when I open execute the app it defaults to the correct city - St Louis, MO. For the life of me I can't get the app to return to St Louis in the Start Menu. On all my other computers it remains at St Louis.


Thing's I have tried:

• Uninstall/reinstall app
• Turned off location access
• Turned on location access
• Set default location
• Cleared the location history
• Windows 10 location service and privacy microsoft.com
