How do I change the region that I get Pop Ups for?

Why is it that every time I get pop ups they are referencing things that happen in India?

I would like to change that so I am seeing notificaitons for my current area, (Seattle / Puget Sound Area) rather than India. I assume there is some kind of setting where a user can select their region.... I'm just not finding it.

Please advise,

~James

Hello,

Go to settings, time & language, then language & region, you can change your country of origin in these settings.

Hope this helps,

JC

    To change the region for pop-ups and notifications in Microsoft services, you typically need to adjust your language and region settings. Here’s how you can do that:

    1. Sign in to the relevant Microsoft service (like Microsoft Engage Center or Office 365).
    2. Look for the Settings icon, usually found at the top of the page.
    3. Navigate to the Language + region section in the side menu.
    4. Select your desired Language and Regional format from the dropdown lists.
    5. Click the Apply button to save your changes.
    6. Confirm the changes when prompted.

    These settings should help tailor the notifications and pop-ups to your current location in the Seattle/Puget Sound area instead of India.
