After the installation is done, launch the Curseforge launcher. You will see an empty page inviting you to create a new game profile.

Click the "Create custom profile" button.

Be careful! When creating a game profile make sure to use the same Minecraft version as you can find on the mod page.

In my case, the Minecraft version is 1.20.1 and the mod loader is Fabric:

And I specify the same values in the launcher profile settings:

After specifying the versions put some meaningful name for the launcher profile and hit "Create".

After your new profile is created you will see it on the main screen. Click on the profile picture to open the profile.

Inside the profile click on three dots in the upper right corner and then "Add more content".

The search will appear. Search for "MineFortress" there. Make sure to search in the Mods section.

Click on the "Install" button to install the mod. After the mod is installed close the search window. Your profile should look like this.

At this point, installation is done. Run the game by clicking the "Play" button in the profile. If you run Minecraft for the first time you may have to log in to the Minecraft launcher. After login, you will see the play button.
