Once you've downloaded the upgrade, you have either a zip file or a self-extracting exe - both of these are going to end up with creating a folder containing the files you need.  The basic way to get things going is to go into that folder and run (double-click, hit enter, whatever) the file start.py.  Everything should be familiar from there.

If you run it without console (like most people, myself included), renaming start.py to start.pyw will remove the console.  To get your game tree back, just right-click game tree under 1.6.1, save as somefile.xml, then go to 1.6.2 and load this file.  (People have reported you can keep all your settings just by copying 1.6.2 over 1.6.1 but I distrust this - try this at your own risk.)
