Flash Player Missing Right After Installation

I am using Google Chrome to download  Flash Player 30.0.0.113, when I successfully downloaded the installer, I clicked it and it installed immediately. When it finishes, it automatically opened Chrome to step 3 of 3 of the download which is Adobe suggested products. But when I got back to my Downloads folder, the installer is gone, and Flash Player is no where to be found in my computer. I use Windows 10 Home by the way.

OP is correct.  Google embeds Flash Player in Chrome and there is no need to install it separately.  Google does disable Flash by default in Chrome, so you may just need to enable it in the browser. See Use or fix Flash audio & video - Computer - Google Chrome Help for assistance.

But when I got back to my Downloads folder, the installer is gone,

This is expected behaviour.  The online installer deletes itself after execution.

If I recall well Chrome has it's own Flash update on windows 10 so you don't need to care of
