Hallo, I have a bit of a issues here. Please help.

Installation of floefd 17 gives a total folder of c.a. 500 mb, though the main installer size is about 5GB. No where in the pc i could find the start icon of floefd or even in the installation it is not present.

What am i missing of installation steps. please suggest

Hello sniper,

I cannot tell what was done wrong, but the standalone version of FloEFD should be around 6GB size in the installation folder. The other CAD versions are around 1-1.2 GB size in the installation folder.
You should have 6 subfolders for the standalone version with the Solidworks folder being the biggest as it is used as the 3D modeling engine for the standalone version.
