Missing voice file #46

I am using eSpeak (latest) from here: https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng/

Previous error message:
Error: Could not load the mbrola.dll file.

After copying everything from https://github.com/thiekus/MBROLA/releases/download/3.3/mbrola_build_3.3_rev2.zip / Win64 / Release into my eSpeak installation folder (in most cases it's C:\Program Files\eSpeak NG), I get a different error message:

Error: Could not load the specified mbrola voice file.

What to do next to fix, what am I missing?

Did I do anything wrong? Put approx. 15 MBROLA voice files, including all of the German ones, into eSpeak installation folder.

Change? Nothing. Same error message:

Error: Could not load the specified mbrola voice file. (3x)
Full dictionary is not installed for 'be'
Error: Could not load the specified mbrola voice file. (another 88x)

Please compare the location of MBROLA voice files, and tell me the right place to move them. Thanks in advance
(Do I have to unpack or install them somehow?
Unfortunately, I cannot install them using any Linux tools, as I am on Windows.)

My bad, didn't read https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng/blob/master/docs/mbrola.md (or didn't notice it anyway).
So I know where to put the files, only I have to install MbrolaTools35.exe first.
I installed MbrolaTools35.exe from here: https://archive.org/details/MbrolaTools35

Still getting similar error messages
