One trivial addition to the previous comment:

I download onto my local machine with "install from internet" to a
shared directory, and then "install from local directory" into a
different directory locally for use.

My instructions for other users in the company are to make a directory
for themselves, copy setup.exe to there, run it from there, specifying
my shared directory as the "install from local directory" source.  This
seemed to fix some problems with log files, etc. that occurred when my
test user ran the setup directly from the shared directory.
