From the "Files of type" pull down in the File>Open dialog box, select the
"Recover Text from any file" item before you click on Open, or, use the
pulldown on the Open button itself and select Open and Repair.

What version of Word are you using? It is not something that you have to
down load, it is an item in the list that appears when you expand the Files
of type pulldown in the File>Open dialog.
