Can a kmz file be saved to the web?
If you create a KMZ file with the Save as option in Google Earth, it will only include images on your computer in the KMZ file. Any media on the web won’t be packaged with it. If you download a KMZ file, and then save it as a KML file, your placemarks will refer to the images in the original KMZ file.
How do I open a KML file on my computer?
The most popular way to use KML files on Windows PCs is with the Google Earth program. Opening this type of file in the aforementioned app is very simple: just launch Google Earth on your PC, go to File -> Open, and select the KML file you wish to open (Optional: you can open multiple KML files at the same time if needed).
Why does my KMZ file not show up on Google Earth?
If one of your placemarks refers to images on your web site using relative URLs (such as “images/myphoto.jpg”), the images won’t display properly in Google Earth. For the most part, relative paths should only be used to refer to images included in the KMZ file.
