My Location Setting
9 Answers
Occaisionally when on my laptop, my location is set as some 100 miles from home. Its been the same since I bought it and its not somewhere I have been, so not left over form a previous use. If I use Google its fine, but today I clicked on a link for a list of cinemas showing a live screening and it gave me the venues 100 miles away.
Where would this setting be found?
