I'm new to Drupal 8, I installed it locally on XAMPP my Mac machine, but in Verify Requirement I got a problem which is

The Settings file is not writable. The Drupal installer requires write permissions to ./sites/default/settings.php during the installation process. The webhosting issues documentation section offers help on this and other topics.

I tried a lot on Internet but there isn't effective solution, Could anyone has knowledge in this.

In a terminal, run this command, where /path/to/drupal/root/ is just that: The path to the folder where you installed Drupal.

chmod 644 /path/to/drupal/root/sites/default/settings.php

Go to the path - sites/default/ and execute below command.

chmod -R 777 /files.
