 * Hello, is it possible to run WP with Microsoft Web Platform?
 * [http://www.microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx](http://www.microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx)
 * And is there a guide of some sort on how to do it?

 * Hi Zicoz,
 * I’m Cyra Richardson from the Microsoft IIS Team. The Web Platform Installer 2.0
   will install WordPress on your Windows machine. There are two different ways 
   that you could use it to install WordPress.
 * Installing Web Platform Installer
    •Go to the Microsoft Application Gallery entry
   for WordPress ([http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/WordPress.aspx](http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/WordPress.aspx)).
   Then click the green “Install” button on the right side of the page.
 * Or
 * •Install the Web Platform Installer 2.0 from link you had in your original post.
   Run the Web Platform Installer 2.0 on the machine you intend to host your WordPress
   site on.
 * From the Web Platform Installer
    •Click on the Web Applications Tab on the left
   side of the dialog •Scroll to the bottom of the list •Click on checkbox to the
   left of the WordPress entry •Click on the Install button and the bottom of the
   dialog and the Web Platform Installer will handle the rest
 * Note that if you do not have MySQL installed, the install will point you to instructions
   for installing it.
