I have a personal Thinkpad P1 running Windows 10 Pro (version 1909, build 18363.535). I would like to turn on Location Services so that I can turn on Find My Device.
However, when I go to Settings>Privacy>Location the Allow access to location on this device setting is off and the Change button is disabled, with the *Some settings are managed by an administrator
text being displayed.
This is my computer and I am the only administrator. I don't recall setting a group policy or anything like that to disable the option. However, I have checked in both the Group Policy editor and the Security Policy editor and cannot find any place where I could have changed something (everything is set to Not Configured
).
I also tried running "O&O Shut Up" and it does not show any location-related thing (including Windows Geolocation Service) being disabled. That said, when I do look at the Services app I do not see any listed services that appear to be about location.
I'm at a loss for what to look for next or how to enable the ability to turn location access on the device off and on rather than having it be locked off.
