OpenStudio 3.0.1 Installation Question

I am trying to install the latest version of OpenStudio 3.0.1.

Steps: 1. I downloaded the windows(x64) version on website http://www.openstudio.net/downloads . 2. Double click the downloaded .exe file 3. Follow the instructions then finish the installation

However, there is on OpenStudio icon showing up in my quick start menu. I opened the C:\openstudio-3.0.1\bin file, but there is only openstudio.exe laying there (which I tried to click, but it seems nothing happened but a cmd window showing up and then closed automatically). I remember that there should be a openstudioapp.exe file there when I install previous versions long before. But right now, I've no idea how can I launch the "installed" OpenStudio.

Can anyone help me? Thanks!

Do I still need to install Energy+ before OpenStudio?

BTW, I installed the 2.7.0 version in the same way, it worked.

Can anyone help me? Thanks!
