Just a few minutes ago, Bing maps now puts me in the same WRONG location:

From my Microsoft Account profile page, if I click "Find my device" or "Show my location" in Bing Map (Default map comes with Windows) it shows my current location in Seattle, even though my laptop is in Toronto Canada. However, if I open my browser and open Bing map or Google Maps, it shows my correct location. Also to solve this issue I tried reinstalling Windows twice, using a VPN to set my location the same as where I live, I ran Windows troubleshooter multiple times. I can't think of any more troubleshooting steps on my own.

2024-06-15T14:06:59+00:00 Today as an experiment, I decided to change my time settings to "set time zone automatically" which was how it was set before Edge geolocation started acting up.
A few minutes later it automatically changed my time zone to eastern from central.
Something is STILL wrong with geolocation IMO.
I turned automatic time zone off and set it back manually to central time, where it belongs at my location.
