How do I change the default weather location on Microsoft Edge? Every time I type in weather, it shows me a different town

Hi!

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

That’s a common annoyance in Microsoft Edge, especially when the weather card or widget keeps showing the wrong town.

Please follow these steps one-by-one.

Step 1: Set your weather location directly in Edge

• Open a new tab in Edge.

On the news feed (Microsoft Start) page at the bottom, you’ll see a Weather card.

Hover your mouse over it and click the three dots (…) or “Customize”.

Choose Edit location.

Type your city/town name and pin it as your default location.

Click Save.

After this, the weather shown in the new tab and search bar should match your chosen city.

Step 2: Fix weather in Bing search results

When you type “weather” in the Edge address bar, it uses Bing’s location settings. To fix this:

• Go to https://www.bing.com/
• Click the menu (☰) at the top-right → Settings → Personalization.
• Under Default location, click Change.
• Enter your desired city and Save.

Let me know once done so I can assist you further.
