| Jun 27, 2018 at 10:21 | comment | added | J.E | This functionality (name of the place/picture) is actually broken on certain versions/installations of Win 10 (usually enterprise ones, i think), so it might lack the globe and the name. | |
| Jun 27, 2018 at 9:37 | comment | added | pipe | Shouldn't there be an FAQ for this somewhere. "How do I find the Windows 10 photo info?" | |
| Jun 27, 2018 at 8:39 | comment | added | Taladris | In Windows 10, you have an option (the Earth logo) on the lock screen page that opens a Bing page for the location of the picture. | |
| Jun 27, 2018 at 7:34 | comment | added | gsamaras | >I also tried reverse googling. No results. Really? I queried with the image, and got:  and the rest of the page is crawling with Kazan, Russian results. In the future, you might want to query like this. =) | |

| Jun 26, 2018 at 15:02 | comment | added | 1006a | @jcaron Google searches are "personalized", so there's no guarantee that what you get on the first page of hits will show up at the top of someone else's search (or even within the first few pages of results). I have seen three different people run an image search for "cheese balls" at the same time; one got images of the packaged snack food, another got ball-shaped cheese dip, and the third got batter-fried chunks of cheese. So all three were "proven correct" about their interpretation of the term (and never would have learned that there was any other possibility if it were up to Google). | |

| Jun 26, 2018 at 14:39 | comment | added | jcaron | I just used the link of the picture above. Note that the "good" results are not in the "Visually similar images" section, but in the "Pages that include matching images" section. | |
| Jun 26, 2018 at 14:19 | comment | added | Féileacán | @jcaron Maybe with your google, I just received images of other stadions or other cities, none of them were the same as in the photo. | |
| Jun 26, 2018 at 11:38 | comment | added | jcaron | A reverse Google image search actually returns results on both istockphoto and gettyimages for that picture. | |

| Jun 26, 2018 at 11:19 | comment | added | Féileacán | @gerrit I already wondered if it is Vienna, but my teacher is from Vienna and he doesn't recognize the city, so I don't think so. | |
