[Qgis-user] still seeing "globeplugin.dll....... could not be found" errors

[Chuck Yahrling]

I have been seeing this error in the Plugins tab of error console
consistently. I have installed 2.18.11 QGIS 32 1.and QGIS 64 on an updated
windows 7 machine.  Also just installed  QGIS 64 2.18.12 on the same win7
machine and on a different win pro 10/64 machine.  I checked and
globeplugin.dll does indeed reside in the system path listed, despite this
error:

"Failed to load C:/PROGRA~1/QGIS2~1.18/apps/qgis/plugins/globeplugin.dll
(Reason: Cannot load library
C:/PROGRA~1/QGIS2~1.18/apps/qgis/plugins/globeplugin.dll: The specified
module could not be found.)"

So some questions:

1.  What does globeplugin.dll  do, and is it part of QGIS or part of Google
Earth. Google Maps, etc as one search result suggested?

2. Do I need to fix this, and if so, what remedies do you suggest?

3. Does this have anything to do with the ~ characters listed in the path?

tnx in advance,  chuck
