That's not the case. *TW will always be able to download itself* (except if 
some day browser vendors forbid downloading files -> which is unlikely. 
File download will _not_ go away any time soon!). ... We call this built in 
browser mechanism the "fallback" mechanism 
<http://tiddlywiki.com/#Saving%20with%20the%20HTML5%20fallback%20saver>. 
... The only problem with the fallback is, that browsers automatically name 
the new downloaded file as eg: tiddlywiki(1).html, if tiddlywiki.html 
already exists. ... If you change your browser settings to "always" ask for 
the name, you could just overwrite tiddlywiki.html manually. see: 

Because many users don't want this behaviour, they request us to overwrite 
tiddlywiki.html for them. ... BUT browser vendors consider this behaviour 
"risky" and they forbid it out of the box. -> One of our solutions is the 
TiddlyFox plugin. A different one is TiddlyDesktop. Internet Exlorer uses 
TiddlyIE 
<http://tiddlywiki.com/#Saving%20on%20InternetExplorer:%5B%5BSaving%20on%20InternetExplorer%5D%5D%20%5B%5BGettingStarted%20-%20Internet%20Explorer%5D%5D>and
 
so on ...

__ Conlusion __ 

There is no need to install something if you want to work with a file 
TiddlyWiki. ... It's just there for our convenience. ... That's all!

have fun!
