Save the installation package in your computer and extract it in a new folder (for example, wordpress/

Move the wordpress/
directory at the localhost server for install WordPress.
Open the phpMyAdmin (http://localhost/phpmyadmin/

It’s time to start the installation process. Open the root directory URL (http://localhost/wordpress/
