How to fix Microsoft Edge detects the wrong Geographical Location

[manliya]

If Microsoft Edge is detecting a wrong geographical location, we can fix it through PC settings. We need to set a default location and then Microsoft Edge will pick it up.

1. Close Microsoft Edge and open Settings by using the Win+I shortcut on the keyboard or using the Start Menu.
2. In the Settings window, select Privacy.
3. In the privacy settings window, select Location from the left sidebar.
4. Scroll down in the Location settings and click on Set default under the Default location section.

To set the default location, you need to have the Windows Maps application on your PC. If you don’t have it installed on your PC, install it from the Microsoft Store.

Then, click again on Set default under the Default location section which will take you to Windows Maps. In Windows Maps, point or search your default location and set it as default.

Finally, open Microsoft Edge and recheck your geographical location. It will change to the default location you have set via Windows Maps.

This is how we can set accurate geographical location on Microsoft Edge. If you have any doubts or suggestions, please do comment below in the comments section.
