Launching Real Player after download

I redownloaded the free version of Real Player after I could not play any of my downloaded videos in my current Real Player.  I downloaded Real Player free three times and every time it states that it is fully installed, the program will not launch for me. Real Player does not appear in my current list of programs in my Control Panel and I do not have a Desktop Icon for Real Player after I checked off  during download that I wanted a desktop icon.

Why won't the program open?
