When I tried that, the IE downloader on Windows 8.1 changed the file 
extension to .man - which of course won't run.
You need to change the file extension back to .msi, and to do THAT, you 
need to go into File explorer and turn ON the "show file extensions" 
option, because for some reason that I cannot fathom, Windows has that 
option turned OF by default.

Good luck!
