Answer 1

You're having problems because you didn't understand Joomla's terminology to extensions.

Extensions are divided in:

• Modules
• Plugins
• Components

Check official documentation to learn each concept.

So, when you have an extension, to install it you just go to your Joomla's menu in administration, and select install like it is in the picture below.

Then, select your zip file which contains your extension.

Answer 2

Go to yourserver.com/administrator/

In one of the menus is a component manager.
