Confirm installation of Denwer (local server)

By pressing “yes”, in response you will get the following window:

Close brower to continue the installation of Denwer (local server)

Now we go to the browser where a page with the message will open saying that installation of Denwer is started. In order to continue the installation, it is necessary to close this window of the browser.

Indicate the installation directory

Then it is necessary to indicate on which virtual disk our path will be C\:WebServers. For instance it is possible to indicate disk X.

Installation of virtual disk

Then it is necessary to indicate the option of load of virtual disk. Let’s choose the first option. After this, indicate that it is necessary to create shortcuts on the desktop, by printing Roman letter “y”.
