did you unzip the cmsms distribution archive?  those folders are contained within it. either use windows' "compressed folders" to unzip it or make sure 'preserve folders' option is selected in your third-party archive utility (winzip, winrar, etc). after it's unzipped, move the entire contents of the "cmsmadesimple" folder (you should have 11 files and 9 folders, totalling 8.28mb or so) to the directory within your web root where it will be installed.

changing permissions is a linux thing. you shouldn't run into any permissions problems on windows using a turnkey wamp installer.

Thanks a lot, maybe i had downloaded the zip file from a wrong website, I have downloaded it correctly and it contains all the folders now.
