The Management Center has no changes compared with the previous ones, so it is not particularly difficult to get started with operations. For convenience, use the Configuration Wizard to configure and click Configuration Wizards and select Launch the Farm Configuration Wizard to run the Configuration Wizard.

The first page contains the service management account, service applications, and service configurations. Retain the default, click Next, and then click Next.

After the creation, the Configuration Wizard is complete. A list is provided to list the work of The Wizard. Click Finish.

Click Application Management in the left-side Navigation Pane and click View all site collections to View the website set created in the Wizard.
