Where IS it?

https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/google_chrome_portable

I spent a lot of expensive Android DATA as a hotspot to download this portable chrome browser.
I've installed it, WHERE IS IT?
Nothing shows up.
Nothing in Programs folder.
Bunch of junk in MyDocuments folder MIGHT relate to it, but there is NO app to click on in order to launch it.
There is only a PAF file, and if I click on it, it just wants to INSTALL it again.
Where's the one I installed in the first place?
You have to be telepathic or a geek to use this thing?

Where You Selected

When you run the installer, it asks where you'd like to put it. What did you select?

If you clicked Next without looking, it would look to see if there's a PortableApps directory on any drives. If not, it'll default to the directory the installer is run from. It won't be in the Program Files folders as these are portable apps and designed not to be there (and the installer will prevent it).

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
