Local installation not creating tables

No. You should never need to create the database tables manually.

First thing - Windows is not supported as an OS server. This may be the cause of this specific issue, maybe not, but it’s best to start with Linux or resolving any other potential issues may be impossible.

If you just want to try it out get Vagrant (or just Virtual Box, but I recommend Vagrant) so you can create a local Ubuntu VM (use 18.04) and install the server using documentation’s instructions.
