Disable Windows 10 Location Service in Settings
- Click or tap the Start button, and click or tap Settings.
- In Settings, click or tap Privacy (Location, camera).
- In Privacy settings, click or tap Location in the left navigation. Under the Location section, click or tap the Change button. Click or tap the On button to toggle it Off.
- It is important to note that the Change button is only present when viewing Settings while logged in as an administrator. If logged in under a non-administrator user account, the option to toggle location service On and Off is still present.
Hint: The option to toggle Location On may appear grayed out. This may be due to the administrator of your computer disabling Location service on the administrator level.
In this case, log into Windows 10 using an administrator user account, go to Settings > Privacy > Location, click the Change button, and turn Location On. Once you turn Location on, the Location toggle will no longer display as grayed out.
