Mainly I see this as one step - Just run "WorldMap_v5.exe" and follow the instructions there.
If we break down what happens with "WorldMap_v5.exe" you will have this sub-steps.

1. Run "WorldMap_v5.exe".
2. Answer "Yes" on UAC control if applicable.
3. Press "Accept" button on License screen.
4. If you use the default settings, just press "Install", otherwise change the path to your own specific GMAP directory. If you use a non default directory you will need to create a GMAP shortcut link in the default directory that points to the specific GMAP map directory.

Either run the EXE-file or extract with WinRAR, WinZip, 7-zip or similar tool.

Great note, and saved my day!
finally I found a way to move all those map-related Gigas from my nearly full c: drive to another drive - basecamp finds them now.

(gave pos.rep. too)
