Windows 10: Where is OneNote for Windows 10?

I use Windows 10 Home. I have Office 365 installed which includes OneNote but this is not the version of OneNote I want to use. I want to use OneNote for Windows 10 which can be downloaded here https://www.onenote.com/Download I download it. It gets downloaded as "OfficeSetup" file. I click on the file and it installs. After that the installation, I do not see any OneNote for Windows 10 app in the program menu. All I see is the OneNote 365 version. I search for OneNote in the file explorer and OneNote 365 version pops up. Where is OneNote for Windows 10? Why an icon does not appear? What
