Really? I experimented by choosing run, which I saw was going to take about
45 minutes at my download speed, and hadn't yet figured out what that would
do once it finished downloading. But you say it offers dialogues that help
you install it, once it's downloaded in Run form?
And yes, I'll check the daisy stuff. Need more experience using it. But I
still think it's needlessly secretive to not give those instructions right
on the page where they proudly list the available voices , or even suggest
towhee to look for more details. That seem to me pretty lackluster
"instructional" writing. as as such tech documentation. Darn good thing
we've got the list for the secrets. Sometimes this feels like a Model A club
decades ago. There were some instructions, I think, but the savvy driver had
other ways of divining out what to do and sharing the knowledge with
others.
Oh well. could be worse, I guess.

Hi,
You do not need to save the FT download , just run it and you will be
prompted to hit the install button and the module will go to the right place
within the FS Folder. The FS Daisy Basic Training is very helpful with this
topic.
