You didn't download it from right site. If you want Windows Phone Recovery Tool for your PC you can download it here. For mobile this app doesn't exist

EDIT: Try to find Garmin Express on your PC and uninstall it.

    Maybe you could share a screenshot of the Garmin Express installer that launches when you try to install the Recovery Tool ? but as GlacialMan said, I don't see how you can get a different installer with this link. – Michaël Polla Apr 5 '16 at 7:38

As GalcialMan stated remove theat Garmin thing and download the Recovery Tool somewhere "safe" like form the official FAQ site: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12379/windows-10-mobile-device-recovery-tool-faq

My Lumia 950 sometimes only gets recognized when I restart the phone while being connected to my PC while the recovery tool is already running.

If this doesn't work you can also check if something called "Emergency Download Driver" from Microsoft/Nokia is installed.
