Please do <i><b>not</b></i> make the default install location
C:\Program Files (x86)\; the vast majority of TeX Live is data, not
program. Microsoft recognise that C:\Program Files & C:\Program
Files (x86) should contain executables, not data, and provide
various alternative locations where such executables may store their
data; in TeX Live, programs and data are inextricably bound
together, and thus such separation is not possible — therefore,
C:\Program Files (x86) is a very poor and inappropriate location in
which to install such a mixed bundle.<br>
