MAUI: Windows platform can't access location - maui

Question

the microsoft document says that accessing location doesn't need permission in windows platform
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/platform-integration/device/geolocation?view=net-maui-7.0&tabs=windows
However,my program got an error
Microsoft.Maui.ApplicationModel.PermissionException: You need to declare the capability `location` in your AppxManifest.xml file
at Microsoft.Maui.ApplicationModel.Permissions.BasePlatformPermission.EnsureDeclared()
at Microsoft.Maui.ApplicationModel.Permissions.LocationWhenInUse.CheckStatusAsync()
at Microsoft.Maui.ApplicationModel.Permissions.EnsureGrantedAsync[TPermission]()
at Microsoft.Maui.Devices.Sensors.GeolocationImplementation.GetLocationAsync(GeolocationRequest request, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
at PowerSaver.MainPage.GetCurrentLocation()
I use the example form official one,though.
_isCheckingLocation = true;
GeolocationRequest request = new GeolocationRequest(GeolocationAccuracy.Medium, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10));
_cancelTokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource();
Location location = await Geolocation.Default.GetLocationAsync(request, _cancelTokenSource.Token);
if (location != null)
Console.WriteLine($"Latitude: {location.Latitude}, Longitude: {location.Longitude}, Altitude: {location.Altitude}");
System details:
Version Windows 11 professional workstation Insider Preview
Edition 22H2
System edition 25236.1010
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.25236.1010.0
sorry for my poor english & thank you
how can I fix the permission error?

Answer 1

I tested the code you provided and also meet the question that Windows platform can't access location.
But I solved this issue. In Windows 11, in Location privacy settings my Location services wasn't on. So, I turned it on, and now it is working.
In addition, if you also want to run it on Android platform, remember to add this to your AndroidManifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />    
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
