If you never installed a previous version of the plugin, you can go straight to Step 1: Install the plugin
Open the Blender Preferences (Toolbar: Edit -> Preferences) and select the AddOns tab
Complete either of the options below:
Remove buttonThe build-in Blender way. Should work. If it doesn't check the second option
Check the plugin's file entry. It will usually be something like this:
Navigate there with your Windows Explorer (Hotkey: Windows+R, paste the path above after changing your Blender version), and delete everything — either the entire folder, or all files inside.
Optional: Close and re-open Blender

Click the "Install" button and select the zip file you downloaded in step 2
You only need to do this if you never installed the plugin before.

You can do both by hand. Find your Blender install's plugin folder, the path will look something like this (replace 3.6 with your Blender version):
Inside the plugins folder, the Wolvenkit Blender IO Suite will be installed to the subfolder i_scene_cp77_gltf.
To uninstall the plugin, delete the entire folder.
To install the plugin, find the folder in your downloaded zip file that contains the file __init__.py, move it here, and rename it.
Now, restart Blender.
