Such as? Flight simulator? I don't use google-earth, so I'm curious. For example, these are Mapton's features:

    Time aware
    Measuring tool**
    Different map providers*
        Google Maps
        NASA WorldWind
        Open Street Map
        OpenLayers
    Different map styles*
        Many included
    Different search engines*
        Bookmarks
        GeoNames
        Google Maps
        Nominatim (by OSM)

Could the computer be 32 bit, the link I showed just gave 64 bit installs.
https://www.google.com/earth/versions/#download-pro
The Google News homepage in Firefox and Chrome has a nine dot menu in the top right corner that includes Google search, maps, photos, youtube, gmail, and a whole bunch more including Google Earth.
Not sure if it would work on a 32 bit machine and it is slow on my old 64 bit machine.

I require features such as Street View, the ability to view old satellite images, and saving and labeling images.  In other words, Google Earth.

All of those apps I mentioned can do that too.

I gave up weeks ago.

Here ends this thread.  Really.  You may close this thread now.
