AZpmerrill Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 When I open Google maps in Chrome it correctly shows me at my house as my current location. When I open Google maps with CCleaner Browser it has my current location many miles from where I am. It will consistently show me in one spot for a while then change to another spot but never to my actual location. I can only assume this is an error in CCleaner Browser. Is there a way to fix this or to report it? Below you will see my current location in Chrome on the right (this is also off but only by about a mile). On the left is CCleaner which has me 15 miles to the north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted September 19, 2023 Moderators Share Posted September 19, 2023 The CCleaner Browser is meant to obscure your personal information, and give 'trackers' false information. Quote It will consistently show me in one spot for a while then change to another spot but never to my actual location Changing your 'supposed' location from time to time is an anti-tracking/anti-fingerprinting measure. I'm not sure just which setting in CCleane Browser does it, but if you want to then you could try turning off the anti-tracking and/or anti-fingerprinting in CCleaner Browser to see if Google Maps then shows your true location? *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?
