XnView install plugin BackRemover_win64


Linux Mint 21 Vanessa.
XnView MP 1.7.1 64-bit(Linux)-Libformat7.176 ; the latest version.

I have read that XnView released new plugin set BackRemover_win64 for removing background. It is placed here.
How can one install this set for Linux Mint?
Is this set posibble for Windows users only? I have read that some plugins may be converted for linux also.
And I cannot find general installation instruction for XnView plugins. For my version of XnView there is option "Effects" -> Remove background colour.
But when I launch it the window "Background remover" appears with "Please install it by using Tools->Plugins". At Tools menu there isn't Plugins option.
I found at About program-> Plug-in modules, that the directory for plugins is /opt/XnView/Plugins.
I placed the unzipped files from BackRemover_win64.zip at this folder, but it doesn't work for me.

that zip file contains dlls, therefore will work only on windows.
