Problems Downloading Lua

This may be in the wrong category, but I did not know where else to put it. I bought a tutorial course that teaches Lua, and I was instructed to download Lua. I know that Roblox uses Lua 5.1.4, but I do not know where to download this version. (I am using Windows, by the way.) Thanks!

Downloading Roblox Studio will keep your lua always updated
You don’t need to worry about versions or anything, just download Studio and you’re good

No, I need to actually download Lua, from like the website Lua.org.

Do you want to learn lua itself or lua for roblox programming?
if it’s for roblox programming, you don’t need to download lua from the website, you just need Roblox Studio.
if it’s lua itself, you have to go to the website, click “Download”, then click “Versions” and find the desired version.

That doesn’t work. When I try to open the file it just deletes itself then redownloads.

Theres another place where I can download it, at the bottom of this page. Lua Binaries Download
That also doesn’t work, it says it cannot be found or is not available.

Installing Lua on Linux is certainly easier from what I know, but

Are you sure these don’t work?

When I clicked on that, it sent me to a different page with this message on it:

Edit: Oh you want 5.1.2. Wait a minute.
