Bother. I tried loading Earth pro which wiped my working Earth set up
and doesn't function!

Anyone care to recommend a source for G. Earth that works on W7 32bit?
Processor, memory, speed look OK

The Internet Archive at archive.org seems to have earlier versions. A
google search on: site:archive.org google earth brings up several
but whether they are complete and usable I really do not know. Best I
can offer, I am afraid.

I've use this in the past for getting an older version that worked on
XP. [None do, these days, BTW.]

However, I'm sure that a simple Google will get you to the latest
version for W7.

Indeed. All back to normal. Ta!
Sadly for those of limited knowledge, there is a huge banner offering a
free upgrade to G. Earth pro with no mention of limitations:-(

I think sometimes when you download one of those older versions, first see
how big it is, assuming its the full install, not just the stub installer,
first step, if possible, turn off the internet connection and force it to
load it from the archive. Many bits of software simply just look online and
say, hey this is terribly old I'll be ever so helpful, and download a new
version. You don't want that. In the casse of earth, though, it could well
be that the minute you reconnect, it does an update unless you can tell it
not to, certainly it has to grab data, but it depends on whether it can do
this and not do an update really.
I am currently fighting Ccleaner, since the latest versions have serious
screenreader incompatibility, so I'm now running on portable versions, Same
goes for Revo uninstaller.
