Windows 10: Remove Google Earth Nav Arrows

My Google Earth recently updated. Instead of the old yellow lines at street level I've now got arrows pointing in the direction I can travel. I'm hoping to take some pics without the arrows getting in the way, but so far I've failed to find a way to temporarily remove them.

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.
