Unable to create JFrame even i installed Windowbuilder in my Eclipse IDE

I have already installed Windowbuilder in my eclipse IDE Mars it worked fine before, but after Eclipse latest changes i am unable to install windowsbuilder with the provided URL of specific IDE Windowbuilder. later i figured out that we must install the Windowbuilder by downloading the repository.zip file. i have downloaded and installed it but still unable to create a JFrame in my Java Project. But what i am confused is i am able to paste a SWT/AWT code in a simple Java Class file and able to execute it.

have installed the repository .zip

enter image description here

No JFrame found after installation. enter image description here

updated error enter image description here

GO this route as it has worked for me: Go to help menu in eclipse go to "About Eclipse" in the bottom left corner click on "Installation Details", click the "installed software" tab, search for window builder and click to delete all features for it. Restart Eclipse, then instead of installing window builder using the "install new software" menu in help, open eclipse market place, search for window builder and install it that way, when you get the options you want to install click on Swing that lets you create JFrames. If that does not work, download a new copy of eclipse and go back to the market place and install window builder again, its possible you have conflicting plugins in your installation. I was able to install it in 2018-09 just yesterday, if that still does not work please comment.
