You don't need to download from sourceforge.net. You can simply use:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
You can read full instructions here.

1Installing driver using ndiswrapper didn't worked for me because of curroupted hardware . @Kubuntuer82 Jan 2, 2022 at 12:42
ndiswrapper
is obsolete and won't help you. A better idea is to ask about a real problem.
