    Where is FreeCell in windows 10?

    This is the 2nd time I have 'downloaded' this and I still can't find the unzipped file or program.

    HD7 connection error 64bit win7

    I can't find a 64bit installer for Zune, when the software downloads it installs to the 'program files' folder not ( x86 ) so as far as I know it is a 64bit program, Is there a link to the 64bit installer that I cant find.

    Can't find downloaded program

    If you chose to save the download then it should be in your downloads folder which is usually c:\users\<name>\download. If you didn't choose to save it then it's probably in some temporary folder. The filename is something like SkypeSetup.exe or SkypeSetupFull.exe.

    well , you wouldn't put it in your start menu untill its installed ,having said that if you didn't download it but chose install ,it went to a temp folder and then installed ,it would/should already be in you start menu ,
    , so just go to search and type in Skype ..it should show up, if not its not installed yet ,just go re-download it and take notice of where its going by choosing check download the dialog box on the screen
