A note about .kmz files
A single word KMZ files, e.g., Sugar.kmz or the file that has words linked by an underscore, e.g., The_Good_Earth.kmz, those files would import just fine.
A kmz with spaces in the name, e.g., The Good Earth, gets converted to something like "The%20Good%20Earth.kmz" That file won't import.
a file that has an apostrophe in the title won't either. The apostrophe gets converted to %29.
