To set up an NGINX web server on Windows, you will first need to download and install NGINX.

Here are the steps to do so:

          1.     Download NGINX for Windows from the official NGINX website: https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/tutorials/install/

        2.     Once the download is complete, double-click the downloaded `.exe` file to start the installation process.

        3.     Follow the prompts in the installation wizard to complete the installation.

        4.     Once the installation is complete, open a command prompt and navigate to the directory where NGINX was installed (by default, this is `C:\nginx`).

        5.     Start the NGINX server by running the `start nginx` command.

        6.     You can verify that the server is running by opening a web browser and navigating to `http://localhost`. If the server is running, you should see the default NGINX welcome page.

That's it! You have successfully set up an NGINX web server on Windows.
