Hi Dave,

The ZIP file that you downloaded is just a compressed folder that the
installation files for the program are in. To install the program, right
click on the ZIP file and click "Open". Select all of the files inside
the ZIP folder and "Extract" them all to the desktop. Now you can click
on the Setup/Install file to install the program. Afterwards, you can
delete the extracted files and ZIP file. You may also want to save the
ZIP file somewhere as a backup if you wish to reinstall the program
again instead of having to download it again.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Dave,

The Setup/Install file should be the EXE application. The .dll and
system32 files are just files used by the program.

No problem Dave,

You just need to extract all the files in the ZIP folder to the same
location (Desktop), and run the Setup program to install the program.
The Setup program uses these files (1 & 2) to install the program.

You can safely delete these extracted files after the program is
installed.
