You have to download the maps. Then search for your desired location on the offline map. Then like the regular map you can explore further to discover various locations or any particular place that you are looking for. Another helpful feature on Windows 11 offline maps is finding the direction to a select destination. How to use that feature has also been explained in this guide. Let’s get started.

Download Offline Maps on Windows 11

Grabbing the map of any region is so easy. Here are the steps. By default, the map will be downloaded to the hard drive that houses the system files. In most cases, it should be the C: drive of the PC. You can change the download location of offline maps to any other drive on your computer.

Finding a Location on the Windows 11 Offline Maps

Here is how you can pinpoint a location for the region/country whose map you downloaded previously. You can share the location with anyone or even take a printout if you will not be able to take your laptop along with you while traveling.

To find the route to a particular destination in the region or the city which you narrowed down on the map, you have to set your course from point A to Point B. Keep in mind that this is an offline map. You cannot know the traffic of the route you have selected to take unlike online maps such as Google Maps which gives an ETA based on the traffic condition on that road. So, you may face a lot of traffic if the road to your destination is busy. This means Estimated Time of Arrival on Windows 11 offline maps is not that reliable. Also, if you are trying to use any feature that is not meant for the offline map, you will be instructed to use the internet.

Update Offline Maps on Windows 11

There are two ways to update the maps you have downloaded for offline use. Either you can update the maps manually or when the PC is connected to the WiFi the map gets updated automatically.

Delete the Offline Maps from Windows 11

Any offline map that you download is no less than 120MB. It can even go as much as 300 MB. The more offline maps you download the more storage space it will consume. Let’s say for your upcoming travel, you downloaded the offline maps. After your tour is over, you can delete the offline map to have more storage space.

Conclusion

In an unknown location having a map of the area in your hands will help you to find the direction of your destination.
