On opening the downloaded Tessera.exe file you’ll be presented with a dialog prompting you to install Tessera on your PC. Options will include installing shortcuts. The default Location is set to be the base level of your C drive rather than your Programs or Documents folder.

The Tessera folder contains both the Tessera Application and the Tessera Data file. This data file is constantly being modified as you use Tessera. Windows does not expect programs to be altering in this manner which is why Tessera is placed where it is. Try the Tessera in other locations on your PC.
