if you downloaded a zipped file,

zipped into a tiny file.

you simply need to double

IIRC, the old Central Point Software PC-Tools utilities used to talk
about "inflating" and "deflating" files. I have this vague recollection
of a balloon animation while the zip/unzip utility was running. But I
could be wrong ...

Right click the zipped folder (not what is in it) and select Extract
All. Then tell the wizard where to extract the files to; then you can
go to the extracted files and run your program.
