Having given up trying to get GPS to work on W10 and W8.1 (works fine on
W7) I was reading that to install W11 (if your PC supports it) you need
to be logged into a MS account.
Now for reasons of paranoia and ancient ingrained habit I've always run
my PCs using local accounts and not one or more MS accounts.
I'm just wondering if there is anything in general which only works, or
works differently, if you are on a local account as opposed to a MS
account.
Grasping at straws, but it would explain why my problems could not be replicated by the supplier.
[Side note, the GPS unit works and can be accessed by dedicated
software, but is not recognised by Windows and made available to e.g.
Google Maps by the OS. I have been through the settings a good few times
with support for the GPS device and can't find anything wrong.]
I'm away from home base at the moment, so don't want to test until I get
back and can use more than one PC, but having had the thought I thought
I would throw it out for comment.
