 * I followed all the steps to complete installation on my Macbook Pro.
 * According to the instructions, this link: [http://localhost:8888](http://localhost:8888)
   should have taken me to wordpress to start registration – but my link has a WordPress
   Zip file linked to it, which just keeps downloading another copy of WordPress
   to to computer.
 * I’ve tried and watched countless videos. I’m not sure what could be the problem?
 * WAMP is successful set-up.
 * wp-config.pgp was edited and saved
 * Please help me! I’m so frustrated, I want to scream.
