Ok. SDM is not the best piece of software ever written. It fails on everybody and everything. There is a lot of grievance in a MSDN discussion thread.
Problem 1:
The first issue I encountered was that it didn't install. It said "The System Administrator Has Set Policies to Prevent This Installation". That is not a standard Windows error message, and I gather it is something the lovely programmers made the app say when failing.
Solution 1:
Run it with Administrator -privileges. The installation package is distributed as MSI-package and Windows Explorer doesn't offer the "Run as Administrator" -option on it. I started a Power Shell as administrator and executed the installed from there. That fixed it.
Problem 2:
Download fails to start on "Active Scripting must be enabled". Well, I have that enabled.
Solution 2:
Make sure following domains are in Trusted sites -list. (See: Internet Options -> Security)
Then the goddamn thing starts to download.
I'd like to second OtaconHC's opinion from the MSDN-thread: The SDM is a failure by design.

Feel free to thank your chosen deity as you seem fit.
However, at this time its just people helping other people with poorly done computer software.

Which IE do you have there? Mine is IE10. In general IE seems to have heavy effect on SDM's functionality or non-functionality.
