Aside from a minor issue on the Win64 platform regarding the install prefix, noted here #3273, the installation and execution of the Vates installer and subsequent simple GUI seem okay.

The download page has been update to ensure that a user installs Paraview into the system path so that the simple GUI will function correctly.
