How to downgrade checkstyle to 8.40 or 8.41 in Eclipse

Question

I am kind of struggling to downgrade checkstyle plugin in Eclipse. The desired version is 8.40 or 8.41. I downloaded .zip/.jar from:

and I followed the instructions from:

Trying to install I get:

Could not find jar:file:/C:/Users/xxx/Downloads/checkstyle-8.40-all.jar

That download does not appear to be an Eclipse plug-in, so you can't just install it. — greg-449, Jul 01 '21 at 10:10
