Location request failing in Windows 10

[Jim Howes 1]

I'm using the Evernote Windows desktop client, in Windows 10, on a laptop with location services enabled.

Evernote fails to detect location on my notes. It doesn't detect it automatically, and when I click to set the location manually I get an error message in Evernote stating that the location request failed.

Anyone else experience this problem, and know how to fix it?

Hi.  I'd recommend a support request.  Don't know how a laptop derives its own location data - my tablet relies on GPS but the laptop doesn't travel so often or so far.

I don't know either, but location services work in Chrome so it does it somehow. I am on my home wireless network, which gets connectivity from a DSL modem connected to the phone jack, so I am assuming there is some location signature associated with that hardline connection.

Thanks for the suggestion, I just submitted a support ticket.

I'd guess your location is set from the internet connection to your IP.  Please let us know how you get on...
