you don't need to install processing, it just runs from its folder. I put mine at the root of C. If you want a shortcut in the programs part of the start bar, just create a shortcut  of the processing.exe and then drag it onto the list.

To 'install' Processing where you want :

1. Download processing-...-.zip
2. Extract the zipped file into "C:\Program Files\" and rename the folder "Processing"

To make a shortcut in the start menu :

1. right-click on Start button in Windows task bar > Open
2. File > New > Shortcut and point to "C:\Program Files\Processing\Processing.exe"
