How to Change the Default Map App in Windows 10

Windows 10 comes with its own built-in map application, Windows Maps. However, if you prefer to use a different map app, you can easily change the default.

Here are the steps on how to do it:

1. Open Settings. You can do this by clicking on the Start button and then selecting the Settings icon.
2. Click on Privacy & Security.
3. Click on Location.
4. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on Set default.
5. Select the map app that you want to use as the default.
6. Click on Set this program as default.

Once you have followed these steps, the default map app will be changed. The next time you open a map link, it will open in the app that you selected.

Additional Notes:

• If you do not see the Set default button, it means that you do not have any other map apps installed. You will need to install a map app from the Microsoft Store before you can change the default.
• You can also change the default map app by using the following command in the Command Prompt:

setx /m Default.Maps.Application {path to the map app}

For example, to set Google Maps as the default map app, you would use the following command:

setx /m Default.Maps.Application "C:Program Files (x86)GoogleChromeApplicationchrome.exe"

Replace the path with the actual path to the map app on your computer.
