Um... sorry I'm a little old school. Directory and Folder are in fact the same thing... MS Just decided to change the name when Windows came out since the icon looks like a little folder.

So yes, create a "folder" on the c drive. Drag all the files from the ZIP to this folder.

I see you basically got the answer to this already. But you will still need to do the above because you will need to run the program from a command line... and that doesn't support running an exe still in the zip file. (Actually a ZIP is a file which contains many files, usually compressed. Windows shows it as a "folder" and allows you too look at the contents.)
