Download Apache Spark on Windows 7 for a Proof of Concept installation

I just wanted an easy step by step guide as to exactly what version of what
ever to download for a Proof of Concept installation of Apache Spark on
Windows 7. I have spent quite some time following  a number of different
recipes to no avail. I have tried about 10 different permutations to date.

I prefer the easiest approach, e.g. download Pre-build Version of ... etc

Thank you for the answers. I followed numerous recipes including videos and
uncounted many obstacles such as 7-Zip unable to unzip the *.gx file and to
the need to use SBT.

My situation is fixed. I use a Windows 7 PC (not Linux). I would be very
grateful for an approach that simply works. This is the first time in 15
years that I have struggled so much to download and install Open Source
software from Apache. I managed to download and install Apache Drill in
minutes.

Apache Spark is just so awkward! Please help. Any version would do for the
required proof of concept.

Use a Hadoop distribution that supports Windows and has Spark included.
Generally - if you want to use windows - you should use the server version.
