To install Umbraco using the Command Prompt (CMD), you can follow these general steps. Please note that the exact commands and procedures may vary based on your specific environment and the version of Umbraco you are using.
1. *Prerequisites:*

Ensure that you have the .NET Framework installed.
Download the Umbraco CMS package from the official website: [https://umbraco.com/download/](https://umbraco.com/download/)
2. *Extract Umbraco Files:*
Extract the downloaded Umbraco zip file to a directory where you want to host your Umbraco website.
