Need help getting started...

Hi all... I've gone to the OpenStudio site and downloaded openstudio-sketchup-plugin.rbz, OpenStudioApplication-1.3.0+5faa91ea6b-Windows.zip, OpenStudio-3.3.0+ad235ff36e-Windows.exe and ParametricAnalysisTool-3.3.0-Windows.exe and cannot figure out how to work with this software.

OpenStudio doesn't show up as an app, and when I try to install the extension in Sketchup it doesn't show up...

I'm just trying to find/download an app that will allow me to fairly accurately model the energy consumption of my house so I can do some 'what-if' analyses on the proposed energy upgrades I have in mind.

HELP?!?

OH - I'm using an Acer Laptop with an 11th Gen Intel i7 core @ 2.3 GHz, 16GB ram, Windows11 on a 64-bit platform, if that affects anything...
