Hidden Google Earth Win7

[(RIP) willstatt]

Just downloaded Google earth. Got message saying "thank you for installing Google Earth"

Trouble is.... it aint here! No icon on desktop, and no listing in 'all programs' search files and folders and it aint there!

Downloaded again, and same result. Tried a restart, still no good!

Where is the foooker

I'm on Win7

any ideas?

Download it again, and when the progress icon appears at the bottom of the browser screen, click on the down arrow to the right of it and select "show in folder".
Works on win 7 fine for me.

Hi Franco, Thanks for the response. I downloaded it again, but there's no 'down arrow' giving me the option you talk about. Could you be more specific please?

I dont have Win7 so this could well be just a load of billox, but does Franco mean the arrow down key on the keyborad, over there on the right
It may mean hitting that arrow down key as its installing, just a guess mind

On my Win 7 machine it's in c:\program files (x86)\google\google earth

If that folder is not visible, check in control panel->programs->uninstall programs to see if you could uninstall it. If it appears not it did not install properly in the first place.

No no

I meant on the status bar at the bottom of yer browser window as seen in the attached image.

Sorted it. Uninstalled it, and re-installed it, and it appeared at last. Franco, thanks for your help: My Win7 task bar doesn't look like that, and I've never seen a download icon with arrow like the one in your picture! Very strange!

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions (apart from the first few!!!)

thats because franco is using google chrome and not internet explorer that your probably using.

 

[franco]

Oh aye, forgot to mention I don't use IE... Glad to hear you got it working.

Thanks for that Franco... I'm use Firefox by the way!
