Problem installing PhotoshopElements_12_WWEFDJ.dmg

[Guest]

Photoshop Elements Experts,

After encountering problem installing Photoshop Elements 12 from the CD onto Windows 8.1 (it wanted DirectPlay, which has been depricated from Win 8.1), I posted the problem.  Sandeep Singh responded and told me to try installing from a download.  That did not work because the file I downloaded, PhotoshopElements_12_WWEFDJ.dmg could not be opened.  Appaerntly, I need another app to open the .dmg file.  I looked for such an app, but have thus far been able to achieve success.  Please help.

the dmg file is for a Mac. For windows there are two files -- exe and 7z. After they are downloaded start the exe file
