On the next page that loads, you will see "Installation was completed successfully."

Enable

Click the link "Enable newly added modules" to return to the Extend page, where you should locate GTranslate module, mark the checkbox and click Install.

You will see "Module GTranslate has been enabled" message.

Configure

Navigate to Configuration and open GTranslate under REGIONAL AND LANGUAGE section.

On this screen you can configure the language selector look and feel and enable the languages you wish to use on your website. The options are self explanatory.
