I downloaded the .exe two times. Once from filehippo and once from the official website. Both are behaving the same way.
I double click/run as admin then it starts extracting and after that the windows asks me to allow the changes. After clicking OK nothing happens.
I rebooted my system a couple of time. I tried removing temporary files. C: drive have more than enough space free. 8GB RAM. I am installing it as admin and have no virtual machine software installed.
I searched for it and I got the following question. But it did not help me because I have more than 100 GB of space free in C: drive.

I haven't figured out how to install it yet, but if you have 7 zip, just right click and select "extract here." Apparently the built-in file extractor doesn't work. Now to find the installation file. . . look for exe obviously
