Issues with install on 7 and 8.x

In the past had seen issues were the install tries to install in Program Files(s) 
directory, and it fails. Then tried to install in C:\tn5250j, and it fails to create, 
but one can open a DOS prompt, and md\tn5250j and then it will create with 
the message that directory already exists, but goes thru. 

The other night had a student with a Windows 8 notebook, and it had the 
same issues. Got it installed, but then found that the (+) field exit key kept 
popping up some windows thing. Also, various F-keys were also bring up 
windows 8 things?? I'm using Linux on my machines, and my classroom is 
dual Fedora 20 and Windows 7 that doesn't seem to have this issues. 

Ended up setting field exit to use Ctrl-X and then using the keypad for 
function keys.

Anyone else figured out options for running on installing and running on 
Windows 7 and above.
