    There are too many ways to do it. I am explaining one.
    Follow Below Steps
    1.Take backup of all files.
    2.Export database from phpmyadmin.
    3.Store backup files in xampp->htdocs.
    4.Create db in phpmyadmin if not created already ,open it and import db file.
    5.Edit Config file to change db name,user ,password.
    6.To replace links of home and blog
    Go to phpmyadmin->select db->select table wp_options, change site url(Column 1) ,change home url (column 36).
    7.To replace other links use Search and Replace plugin from inside.

    Thats it.Happy Blogging.
