I not been to Rotorua for about 7 1/2 years ago. We live in Tauranga. This is on me lappy, not check desktop as wife on it. We both have Windows 10 Pro. Can I ask, please, how does one change this?

I did a Google says a VPN is a virtual private network. My phone says something about that????	ianhnz (4263)

Ian send Bill gates a xmas card , with your current address on the back, written in crayon (or blood, if you are a linux user) Ask him to pass it on to Mr Google. Have a look outside , there will be Win10 out there, lurking in the bushes, spying on your every move. Ask them to update the details . :punk There is a setting in win10, that turns off passing on location details to whoever. Set it to on, if you dare :) www.howtogeek.com	1101 (13337)
