   When you start the download it gives you an opportunity to state where   
   it will be downloaded to (the folder)   
   It wont automatically replace anything, because its not an installer,   
   its an install program.   
   Its just like you downloaded a game, you have to install it by running   
   the install program.   
      
   Find where you downloaded it to, then launch it.
