The standard "Download" button on Google's homepage typically attempts to download a small "stub" installer, which then connects to the internet to download the actual software. This report focuses on the "Offline Installer" (standalone installer), which contains all necessary files and is useful for machines with connectivity issues or for archival purposes.
