OK, thanks.
Currently, I see at the top directory the following files which can be
confusing:
install-tl*
install-tl-advanced.bat*
install-tl.bat*
install-tl.exe
install-tl.exe.sha256
install-tl-unx.tar.gz
install-tl-unx.tar.gz.sha256
install-tl.zip
install-tl.zip.sha256
and:
update-tlmgr-latest.exe@
update-tlmgr-latest.exe.sha256@
update-tlmgr-latest.sh@
update-tlmgr-latest.sh.sha256@
update-tlmgr-r31673.exe
update-tlmgr-r31673.exe.sha256
update-tlmgr-r31674.sh*
update-tlmgr-r31674.sh.sha256
Could you precise what will be the new names for all these files?

You're welcome.
