There is no need to have MS Reader open once the LIT file is downloaded to your PC. If the "Extract" option worked, then the LIT has been downconverted as part of this process. So it may be the case that the explicit downconvert also worked without you being aware of this. Depending on what options you selected, the downconverted LIT file might be in another directory or have 'downconverted' added to its filename.

Note that "ConvertLIT GUI" is an add-on to ConvertLIT. I'm not sure from your description which you have (original or the GUI add-on). Both should work, but the GUI version is a bit easier to use.
