On our computer with Windows 10 we have a map app available. So we can use it in the event that we do not want to use Google Maps in our case. Like many applications of this type, it needs an Internet connection to work, but it also gives us the possibility of downloading these maps.

In this way, we will have access to them at all times, even when we don't have an internet connection. It can be useful if you are using these maps in Windows 10 for work or studies. Thus, you will be able to work and use these maps at all times on the computer.

First of all we will have to open the maps application on the computer. To do this, we look for maps in the Windows 10 search bar and we will then have access to this application at all times. In a couple of seconds it will be open on the screen, showing a map of the city in which we are at that moment.
