My computer in Michigan seems to think it's in Phoenix, AZ. I've never taken this thing to Phoenix, only my
Microsoft tablet/computer combo to Phoenix in December 2022 for the Fiesta Bowl, but it only started doing this a couple of months ago. The time and date are correct. I have an HP laptop running Windows 11 Home. Right now in the lower left corner of the screen, it's showing that it's mostly cloudy and 69F. Lovely, but it's actually 41F and cloudy where I'm at. It claims that Phoenix is "home" so I can't change it. I've googled solutions but none seem to work.
Do you have any suggestions? It's annoying to have to open Edge just to check the temperature and weather. I don't like Edge much.
Thanks for any help you can provide!

(17,125 posts)more of a website issue. Some websites tell me that I'm in Canada and need to go to their Canadian website, or can't ship to me, etc... One bookseller always wants to translate its text to another language because "English isn't my default language," though it's the only language I use online.

(76 posts)At the upper left you should see 'Widgets', under that is the location/weather info (that's one of the widgets). The city name should be a dropdown, and most likely you can change it to your actual location in that dropdown. If it's not there, click the '...' icon at the upper right of the widget and choose 'Customize Widget' and search for your actual city and checkmark that when it pops up in the results. This should make it available in the City dropdown on the widget, so then you select it there.
