Hi Everett,
sounds like a practical idea. But if you do it that way, does in
installation dialogue open when you click on the file you've downloaded, so
that things go the same as if you'd done it with the Run command?

Good morning,
If you have slow download speeds I'd recommend saving it and then running
it. Just in case something unexpected happens during installation it would
be nice to have a local copy so that you don't have to cancel the install
and download again.
HTH,
Everett
