Hi, Shivkumarsingh,

STEP 1: Copy all the .xap files which you want to install in your Windows 8 phone to your SD card.

STEP 2: Now go to Start -> Store -> SD card and wait for few minutes for all the .xap files to be loaded.

STEP 3: Select the app which you want to install -> Select Install option.

STEP 4: If your apps are compatible then you can see them in the Compatible apps list if not it will be shown in the Incompatible apps list.

STEP 5: Once you have successfully installed the apps, you can see those apps listed in the Apps list from start.

I have the .XAP file on my PC as well as in an email as an attachment. How can I get it on the Lumia 920 so that I can install it? When accessing the phone via USB, are there hidden folders that I can drop the .XAP file into?
