Windows 10: Recent Activity - Location is different

Hi


I checked my Recent Activity and noticed that my Location is quite different from where I am. I logged in using my desktop PC at home. I noticed also that the location looks like dependent on the IP address. Anyone can explain why this is happening? Or should I be worried?


Thanks

:)
