As email setup on a local PC is not essential in learning how Zen Cart works, I would suggest you turn off Mercury in the XAMPP Control Panel (and uncheck it as a service, if necessary) when you start Apache and MySQL to play with your local Zen Cart.

In this way, you save time and effort on troubleshooting your local server/pc configuration and get to work on the more important task of familiarizing yourself with how Zen Cart works.

Btw, if you have forgotten the admin id/password for logging into the Admin Console, you can refer to this article in the Tutorials/FAQs section for help.
