Google Earth Geocache Browser

[ljay]

Hi, not GC.com related but thought this would be the best place to ask.

 

I have just replaced my PC and it has vista. On my Laptop i have XP and have been using the Geocache browser on Google Earth.

 

When i tried to download the browser (from my GC.com Profile Page) the file is opening up in Word Pad but doesn't load in to Google Earth??

 

Any suggestions? Does it not work on Vista yet??

 

Thanks a Million

I'm using it on my desktop. I have to open it as an administrator.

It works fine on Vista. It sounds like the KML file association is messed up on your computer. Try downloading and saving the GE geocache browser file, rather than opening it. Then, right-click the downloaded file and select Open With > Choose Default Program. Then find Google Earth and select it as the default program for KML.

hmmm, Tried that and still can't get it to work.

 

It will just have to wait. i've deleted the file and i'll just keep using the lap top.

 

Thanks a mil
