Happy to pay.
Thanks in advance

sometimes if you reset your computer back to a point before you lost it it might come back (it has sometimes worked for me)
BUT you will loose everything the you have put on after that date
NOT a guarantee fix
someone on here may know a better way and if they do i will be watching with interest ] ] ]

Sounds like the MyPlaces.kml file may have been deleted/corrupted with its contents.

I have a .kmz file of Victorian Mines that shows in my "Places" sidebar where it can be turned on or off in the checkbox (mine does).

I did a search in the "Help" area of Google Earth for "places lost" and it returned a lot of links.

This one looks promising...

There is a link to a 'discussion' on how to recover/fix the myplaces.kml file step-by-step.

If you do locate the backup kml or kmz files - BEFORE you do anything else make backup copies to a thumb drive BEFORE attempting any Mr Fixit activity.
