HB PC and Google Earth
« on: June 15, 2015, 06:57:16 PM »
All of a sudden when I try to use Google Earth while in HBPC I get a message that Google Earth is not downloaded.  However, I can double click the  short cut icon on my desktop and GE comes up and I can use GE while in Humviewer.

Any suggestions?

Out of curiosity I opened Google Earth, minimized it and was able to see it in HBPC.  It came up with my tracks and waypoints showing on the lake I had highlighted.  Maybe Google did some updates that prevents it from opening up in another application.

Need to see some opinions/feedback.

I hadn't actually tried the Google Earth feature since updating HBPC to version 4.3.8 ...

I experienced the exact error as you ... And even was able to minimize Google Earth and it work properly with HBPC just as you did ...

I uninstalled my current version of Google Earth from my PC ...

I then installed an older version of Google Earth 7.0.3.8542 from filehippo ...
http://filehippo.com/

This version of Google Earth seems to work correctly with HBPC 4.3.8 and Humviewer 86 ...

Thanks Richie for reply, I had a feeling that Google did this with latest update.  As long as I can use it with HBPC I can live with it as is (keep it minimized).
