How to install Magento 2.2.x on windows OS with WAMP or XAMPP

[rajnikant24]

As mentioned in the Magento 2.2 official documentation that OS requirement is Linux, then can anyone please let me know if we can install or use the Magento 2.2.x on Windows machine or not?

If we can install the Magento 2.2 on windows then what is the correct process and what are the disadvantages if any?

Thanks

Hi @rajnikant24

You can install Magento2.2 on windows.I have installed it on my system.You can use either wamp or xampp as per your choice.

The biggest disadvantage which I personally feel Magento2 runs very slow on windows.

Hi @rajnikant24

as mention by @Mukesh Tiwari Definitely you can install magento 2 - on windows system , using wamp and xampp server.

To install magento 2 on wamp server here i am sharing reference link for the step by step installation which might helps you - https://www.simicart.com/blog/install-magento-2-wamp/

Also i completely  agree with the @Mukesh Tiwari that problem with the windows system is magento 2 running slow , but if you have SSD instead of HDD in your windows system with proper memory configuration that you will not face that much slow issue. so its depends on the system.

Hope it helps
