Install Google earth

Hi all and hope your week is going well.
I have just tried to install Google earth to my windows 7 computer. It all starts ok and the installer comes on the screen. It then runs as if its loading with the little blue bar slowly scrolling across a little box.
Then after maybe one minute a box comes up and says "thankyou for installing google earth". One minute is not enough I thought. So when I looked for it and found no sign in my program list I looked around the computer and could find no sign of it. Nothing comes up after that. Sometimes there is a short pause before programs get themselves together and then install.
So, does anyone have any ideas as to whats going on or maybe its happened to you. My machine is a 64 bit one but has both 32 and 64 bit IE explorers if that helps.

Open windows explorer. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google Earth\client, select googleearth.exe and make a desktop shortcut for it.

Hi Johnathon king, no sign of it in the start menu. However swarfega, your post was right. I have found that and made a shortcut and its ok.
Added to your rep. Thanks

Glad it worked.
