Direct Download and Install Google Earth Without Google Updater or Pack

For user who wants or tries to download Google Earth setup installer from official Google Earth website (http://earth.google.com), the installation executable file that is been downloaded is for Google Updater instead, after user clicks on “Download Google Earth” (current version 4.3) and “Agree (Terms and Conditions) and Download” buttons.


Download Google Earth is not what it means to be.

Google Earth has been included as part of Google Pack, which has Google Updater as one of its core program. Google Update is a memory-resident and sit on system tray (notification area) application program that downloads and installs all the software selected in the Google Pack, beside monitoring the status (check for new version) of installed software, run software that’s been installed, or uninstall software.

Most people who needs Google Earth does not require or like Google Updater to automatically install and update Google Earth for them though. Fortunately Google also provides standalone installation setup .EXE and .DMG file to install Google Earth on Windows PC or Mac OS X computer, albeit not clearly and not directly.
