Hello, welcome to the forum.

To install an application from a .deb file, use

Code:

dpkg -i nameOfTheFile.deb

This however requires root privileges.
Please remember, that this is not a usual way of installing applications in Linux, you may want to use Application Manager for that. What applications are those?
