Avast Secure Browser Unable to show current location on Maps
« on: October 01, 2022, 11:37:37 AM »
Unable to view current Location!!!

I had face a problem when open the Google Map to view my current location and find the distance between the destination and my current location.
But my current location is totally difference with my location show in the Google Map.
I had check the setting and I didn't use any VPN.

Google Chrome can view my current location in the map and it is accurate.
Hope to get solution regarding this problem ASAP...

I guess that is what the 'Secure' in 'Avast Secure Browser' is all about.  I guess it has to do with the 'Private Browsing mode.'

Whilst I don't use the Avast Secure Browser, nor do I use a VPN and Firefox (my default browser) has no problem with Google Maps.
