    Now click on the Open link for the file you just downloaded.

  5. You may get a security warning like this:

  6. The setup file should now run.

  7. It is a very good idea to keep the file you downloaded. Don't delete it! You never know when you may need to reinstall, or when you may get a new computer. You'll need the downloaded file to install again.
