However, this service can not be configured to only apply certain application updates - it is all or nothing. Google makes it difficult to disable these updates - in the interest of ensuring their customers receive these fixes and enhancements. Google has chosen to implement a 'Windows Service' which is used to ensure all of their products (including Google Earth Pro and the Chrome web browser) have the latest patches applied - including security fixes and application enhancements. Until Google rectifies this, if ever, we recommend using an older 7.3.2 version of Google Earth Pro.

On May 7, 2020, Google removed/disabled their application linking functionality in version 7.3 of Google Earth Pro (version 7.3.3) - breaking its compatibility with Terrain Navigator Pro. Thus, whenever Google Earth Pro does not appear to be synchronizing properly with Terrain Navigator Pro, we recommend uninstalling Google Earth Pro, and installing (or reinstalling) the previous version. This can be illustrated when Google Earth appears not to be installed, or system messages appear that attempt to reinstall Google Earth, or a variety of other system oddities. When Google releases updated versions of Google Earth Pro, they may make adjustments that can affect the compatibility with Terrain Navigator Pro (as well as other applications.) In fact, our tests have shown that some versions of Google Earth have many other compatibility issues, including some that are completely independent of Terrain Navigator Pro.
