Sorry, no advice, we'd need more information. Main questions:

You talk only about downloading - and the link you gave leads to the 
download page as a whole, so we can't guess the OS you - or your 
daughter - use.

One guess, because that's quite a frequent problem, at least on Windows: 
did you perhaps try to start the installer a second time instead of 
Python itself? The symptoms you describe would fit this case.

Some possibly helpful links:

https://docs.python.org/3/faq/windows.html

That's still supposing your daughter uses Windows. If yes, then the 
first entry might be enough to get her started.

https://docs.python.org/3/using/index.html

More about installing and using Python on Linux, Windows and Mac. If 
it's Windows then perhaps the Microsoft Store package might be easier to 
use? I don't know it myself, but the description looks promising.
