If its a windows laptop, and you have signed in to a microsoft account on it, you can go online and sign in your microsoft account and click on devices. It will show you a map of where the laptop is.

I saw that episode of Big Bang Theory. Don't bring your Klingon Bat'leth. He's only going to take that as well.

Keep the police involved. If you do have a way to track it, make sure they pick it up and not you. I think most of the time people just wipe the drives to prevent anything on the laptop from signing in and giving a location away. If it's been 4 days, I wouldn't expect to be able to find it remotely.

I have logged in to my Microsoft account but can't find the place for devices and the map. Where can I get it?

Click on your name at top right

Find my device.

However....the map view it gives is very generic. Like a 3 mile radius. It's not going to show you what house it is in.
