Cannot Install Google Earth

Brand new install of win10. Every day another hassle.

Today I go for google earth and realise yep, I haven't put it back yet.

So go to download/install it.

First I get a google chrome error: 0x80070005.

Hassle around, googling and finish up with a google earth downloading app error: 0x80070057.

Hassle around some more, different downloads of GE and finish up with an error 'Code 2'.

It's hopeless.

I can't get anywhere.

Can anyone help, anyone got any idea what's perhaps going on here?

Thank you.

I ran it. No integrity violations. I am at 18362.388

I hope there's some other avenues of investigation...

I only have this single 'client state' key. Delete it?

I tried the 32 bit installer some time back. It didn't work either.

so I don't have the key you mentioned?
I tried the 32 bit thing some time ago. I could try it again..

I can't install Google Earth. I get a 'code 2' error and the only information I have been able to get on that is that it is a MS error code and means 'file not found'.

I'd like to know what file it is looking for.

I'm not getting that info from Google just right now.

Does anyone know of a tool I can use to track exactly what goes on when an installer like Google Earth installer tries to install?

I'm thinking of something like a packet sniffer that works internally I guess.

I couldn't find anything in event viewer. I'm not much savvy on it though, perhaps it can be configured somehow to provide me with better information?

And lastly perhaps this is a very technical question (though I'm not a very technical person) and would be best directed at a specialist technical forum in which case does anyone know an appropriate forum, because I don't. :)

To resurrect an old thread, the fix for this is to download the full installer and use that, rather than the minimal cache installer: Update Google Earth Pro - Google Earth Help.
