Thanks for your report!

The ci-artifacts archive you send the link for is not meant to run on end user computers, it is for the Continuous Integration system.

The equivalent to Binary Factory is https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/sdk/lokalize/ There you can download installers for your Windows PC. Please note that everything offered on https://cdn.kde.org is "nightly/daily software" and not officially a stable release (same as on binary factory). However for Lokalize there are no stable Windows releases (yet) so it is the way to go.
