Click File | Open language modules. Then, the program will automatically call the file explorer and pop up a folder. Move the file you downloaded to the popped-up folder. Finally, close the file explorer.
If you want to switch the language, that the OCR program uses, please click File | Switch language . In the popped-up dialog "Select a language", choose your language and click "OK". The current language will appear in the "Language" row in the main window.
