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

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