Where are the EXEs for Subsystem For Unix Applications so I can use it?

I am on Windows 7 Ultimate.

I have done done start..ctrl panel..programs..turn windows features on and off...and ticked Subsystem For Unix Applications

enter image description here

When I click the start menu, I see it isn't installed but it has enter image description here

I then followed the link in my start menu which went to a webpage to download it. No need to register and it downloaded Utilities and SDK for UNIX-based Applications_X86.exe

I see no exe extension, and no special shell

How are these meant to run? Or, how am I meant to run these?

I can rename or copy a command e.g. who to who.exe and run it but surely that's not how i'm meant to run it.

How am I meant to run these?
