    Might have created a folder - same name as the ZIP file (eg c:\zipname).

    Alternative is to search for files/folders modified by date (today).

    Or do a search for the programs name.

    There is either a folder in the root of your hard drive that is named the same as the zip file you downloaded, or the root of your hard drive has had the extracted files simply dumped there.

    To access the root of your hard drive, select My Computer, then double click on your C drive.
    Remember kids, it's the volts that jolt and the mills that kill.

    You could always try to unzip it again, but without pressing the final "OK" During the process it will tell you where it wants to put the files.
