Step 2: Installing/Configuring
Before we start installing we need to make some changes to some files. Go to
"htdocs/phpmyadmin/libraries".
Right click and click "paste". Now rename the copied "config.default.php" to "config.inc.php".
Now open the new file "config.inc.php" in a text editor such as "wordpad" (note pad may not work in
this situation as the encoding is different and the lines are seperated in a different way.
Find the line highlighted below and change "A memorable word" to something you can easily
remember, but not something too obvious like your name.
