I'm repeating myself here - didn't see "new message" option before so I just replied to another similar post.

"Download was successful" it told me - and then asked for information about deployment - which I understand to be for multiple computers (isn't it?). This is a stand alone home computer - not linked to other computers.

The logo page appeared but then never opened to the program. And the program icon was not on the desktop, nor in "programs" so....did it load or not? What to do now/next is an issue. Do I download it again?? If I did would it pick up where it left off or duplicate itself taking up huge amounts of space?

Please advise.

The download is a self-extractor. Once all the necessary files have been extracted, you need to run setup.exe and install the product.
