Captivate 9 Assets: How to Download

Hello,

I selected the Assets icon within Captivate 9 and it then automatically downloaded the application: Adobe_eLearning_Asset_LC21 (.exe).  I believe it happened when I selected "Get Free e-Learning Assets". I double-clicked on the application file and then a screen opened to extract files to a defaulted folder (i.e. C:/User/Owner/Desktop/Adobe Elearning Assets). I clicked Next and then it downloaded a folder (...including packages, payloads, resources) as well as an Application called "Setup".  Then when I double-click on "Setup", a dialog box automatically pops up called 'Adobe Installer' which then initializes Installer. Once finished, a dialog box appears called: Adobe Elearning Assets All.  I have attached a screenshot.  

What do I do from here?  Am I to click on Install? Am I to keep the location the same yet the files - which included the Setup application -- downloaded to the default folder noted above?  Why does it only include a "Characters 9.0 folder"?

Going through the tutorials, it indicates that once I click on the Assets icon within Captivate 9, a dialog box is to pop up with the choice over 30,000 eLearning assets.  I have attached a screenshot of that as well.  It DID NOT pop up on my screen...

After checking an hour later, I spotted the C:/Owner/Public/Documents/Adobe/eLearning Assets folder. I noticed the assets (which are default in Captivate 9) are listed; however, not the 30,000 indicated below.

Please help...

You would want to click 'Install,' when it is done it will likely have some descriptions of the content that you can download based on search criteria.

You have to download each wanted asse from their sitet, you'll never need 30,000 assets I imagine. You can search on tags.

Hello,

When I now click on "Get Free e-Learning Assets" it goes to the eLearning Brothers website with the ability to download.  It was not working at all before (just would have a blank white screen).
