    Resolved [RESOLVED] CHROME Browser and Location/"Near Me" Function

    I live in Largo, Florida.

    If I search for BURGERS (as an example) I will see an option-> NEAR ME

    Then, when I select Near Me I'll get information like->
    Top 10 Best Burgers Near Saint Petersburg, FL


    If I repeat the steps in MS Edge I see -> THE BEST 10 BURGERS in LARGO, FL

    I've included a MAP of the area.... While St. Pete is a nice area - it's the WRONG Area. (LOL) I've looked high and low and can't figure this out. I've enabled more "location" settings than I really want enabled and nothing helps.

    Thoughts?!?!?!??!

    Perhaps the browsers are set up to use different DNS settings/providers which show different locations.

    Well shucks.... I changed my default Search Engine from Bing to Google and it fixed it.

    BUT.... MS Edge uses Bing and it works too.

    I probably don't care with Search E I use.... Just that I've always used Bing with a few exceptions.
