    the file should be wherever you specified when you downloaded the file...

    and you need a unzipping program, such as 7zip, to unzip the file (the default format when downloaded is a .zip file...it cannot be simply opened without extracting first)

    you can try a system search (search option under start menu), and type in "perfect". it should pop up eventually if you did successfully download it.

    yeah...thats because you need an unzipping program to do it. .zip files cannot be double clicked if you don't have the right program.

    get 7zip and it should work

    looks like you have to redownload en save to file to hard-drive instead of opening it first.
