I got the instructions to download the install program from Microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx. I followed the instructions on the link above. The app files installed and I got to the finish with no problems. At that point, I was supposed to run the install.php program in the server’s browser, but it won’t execute there. From what you say in your post, it is folly for me to try to get wordpress to run on my server. For one thing, I have a big issue with rights every time I install a new ssl certificate. I usually just run websites and have no big issues. I am taking a class in online blogging/writing and the instructor thinks that wordpress is important if you are going to have a blogging website. I guess I will just blog on my regular websites. Thanks anyway.

I downloaded and installed MySQL and php, apparently. When I try to run the wp-admin/install.php in the browser, It prompts me to open or save it. When I try to open, it just loops back to open or save.
