    Google Earth Pro... for who?

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    In order to help you with the appropriate troubleshooting steps, please reply with the following details:



    • When you say, “I found the Chrome version too limiting, so I downloaded a copy” Did you download a copy of Google Chrome or download Google Earth?
    • What happens when you try to move the Earth?
    • Do you get any error message/code?


    However, I suggest you to refer the section Stop Earth from spinning
    from the article
    Fix Google Earth errors
    provided by Google and instead of unchecking put a check mark for the option Enable Controller.



    For any installation related issues with Google Earth, please refer the article

    Install & uninstall Google Earth Pro
    .



    For versions of Google Earth, you can refer the link
    Google Earth
    .



    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.



    Regards,

    What's Wrong With Win10 When It Will Not Allow Google Earth To Install?

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand when you try to install Google Earth you receive an error failed to cache the downloaded installer. Error: 0x80070005.



    The Error 0x80070005 indicate insufficient permissions. I would suggest you to make sure that you are logged in as an Administrator and then try to install Google Earth.



    You can try downloading the direct installer and run it as administrator. You can download Google Earth from

    Download Google Earth Pro for desktop
    . To run the installer as administrator, right click on the setup file and select
    Run as administrator.



    If you still face issues, I would suggest you to enable hidden admin and try installing Google Earth. Refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Type command prompt in the search bar on the
      Taskbar.
    2. Right click on the command prompt icon and select
      Run as administrator.
    3. Type in the following commands one by one and hit
      Enter
      :

      net user administrator /active:yes


    Note: Make sure to disable hidden admin by using the command
    net user administrator /active:no after performing the troubleshooting steps.



    After enabling hidden admin, try installing Google Earth.



    If the issue persists, I would suggest you to share the screenshot of the error message. Please refer
    how to include a screenshot in your postto
    upload the screenshot.



    Note: Make sure you don’t capture any personal information while taking the screenshot.




    Let us know the results.

    Can't install Google earth because of UNPACKING_FAILED error.

    Cannot Install Google Earth

    It is a known problem for a long time with the Google cache installer. Look for this key
    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Update\Clients in the registry and delete the associated key for GE.
    Update Google Earth Pro - Google Earth Help Try the 32bit vs 64bit installer.
