To work around this issue, manually delete the following regkey using regedit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lfsvc\TriggerInfo\3.
As the Geolocation Service can no longer be started, Geolocation will remain disabled on the device and prevent location based functionality from working. The proscribed solution is below in bold.Īfter disabling the Geolocation Service by changing startup type to Disabled, attempts to re-enable it will fail with an error message. I found the solution on a Microsoft support site, and in my case, I edited the Registry as described, did a restart, and was then able to re-enable Geolocation Services. It transpires there is a known issue with Win 10 that means that, if Geolocation Services is disabled for any reason, it cannot be re-enabled through normal methods. Here too, when I select it and click Apply, the check box is cleared again.I also had an issue with Geolocation Services not running, and in my case it was preventing Cortana from working.
I also notice that one service under the Services tab is not selected - Geolocation Service. There is something that need to be fixed with msconfig or geoloc service, by microsoft maybe ? Ps i had the same problem playing with msconfig settings when i did a in place upgrade of win 7. I posted a message for LFSVC service (geolocation service) not working if i used msconfig.ġ: Hold shift while in start menu, and press restart.ģ: computer reboot, select option 4 or 5 to choose safe mode.Ĥ: In safe mode, right clic on start menu, and run administrator command prompt.ĥ: wright "msconfig " without " and " then press enterĦ: in ms config, select normal boot, and check it activate all services in services menu.ħ: leave ms config and click restart on the box that appear.Ĩ: enjoy, Geoloc is working again, and if trying to run the service manually, it won't complain again about missing file. I did a format on hdd and did a clean install of win 10圆4 home, Only thing I did was uninstall MS Apps Get Office and Get Skype. I have not disabled any start up programs. Here too, when I select it and click Apply, the check box is cleared again.
If I select Normal startup and click Apply, it immediately defaults back to Selective startup again. I have noticed in my fresh clean install of Windows 10 Pro, when running MSCONFIG that my system is set to Selective startup.
