How to install WordPress in Windows 7

I plan to install a WordPress locally for fun. I have never touched on PHP or MySQL before. I had a lot of tutorials on the Internet, but none of them were totally trustworthy. I had a lot of detours, but I finally got it. To minimize detours, we feel it is necessary to record this process. I wrote this tutorial for the first time.

Go to the control panel and open "service"


Find MySQL


Stop this service
