If you run the installer, it will put the file where it's needed.  You'll have to run in at least #x1024 screen res and set the texture size to at least 1024 in the video settings in-game.
My Current Rig:
GigaByte GA-X99-UD4 Mobo w/ 16Gb RAM
Intel i7 5820k, Win7 64-bit
NVidia GTX 970 4Gb ACX 2.0
Track IR, CH Fighterstick, CH Pro Throttle, CH Pro Pedals

So you saved the download to your desktop?  That's fine.  Just double-click to run the .exe and it will extract to your AH2 installation folder.

Sounds like your game shortcut got overwritten.  Browse to your installation folder and make a new shortcut to the main game exe.

This is why I have a folder just for downloads - makes it easier to find them, doesn't clutter up my desktop, doesn't screw with other shortcuts I might have, etc.

Derk, you should not be running hi res textures on your laptop with the 4200 chip.  You'll be lucky if you can efficiently run 512 textures.. I think 256 would be your best bet.
