What does /windows/C/MyDownloadFiles contain? Yast expects a product in the
specified directory (CD1/DVD1 copy or a YUM repository). If you want to use an
ISO image check the option in the dialog.

If you have just plain RPM files (no metadata, no directory media.1 or
suse/setup...) use "Package Directory" type of the source.
