How to download and install Google Earth

Step 2: start the download

Your download should begin once you have clicked on "Agree and Download". For security reasons many browsers will not automatically begin the download process. If this is the case, take any necessary steps - such as clicking on the top information bar in Internet Explorer 6 - or click on the link, as shown below:

The file that you are downloading is the installer for the Google Earth application, not Google Earth itself. If you are asked whether you want to "Save" or "Run" the file, choose "Run" as you do not need to keep a copy of this file once the installation has suceeded. Please select the system that best describes your computer for instructions on how to install the software. Otherwise, click "Next" to proceed to a demonstration of the hydrant system.
