The Windows 10 offline maps feature is handy if you know you’re going to be using your PC in a location without an Internet connection, and you’ll need access to maps. You can download maps for specific areas in the ‘Maps’ app in Windows 10 and use them offline.

You’ll be taken to the ‘Offline maps’ section of the ‘System’ screen. There you can download from a list of six continents (Antarctica is disappointingly not supported) Select the continent on which the desired country is located. You can choose to download specific regions or ‘All regions.’
