After selecting a theme like zircon-8.x-0.2.tar.gz in http://localhost/admin/theme/install,
I am blocked on the next screen http://localhost/core/authorize.php with
"WARNING: You are not using an encrypted connection, so your password will be sent in plain text."
But I do not ask for a FTP transfer as the tar.gz file is already downloaded.
Thanks for your help.

Environment :
php 7.0.8
mysql 14.14
Drupal 8.1.8

That page is trying to install the theme through FTP.

If you already have the file, you just need to add it to your /themes folder, and enable the them. You don't need to install it.

This solution worked fine for me. Thanks for helping.
It's not normal being redirected to page http://localhost/core/authorize.php when using
"Install new theme/Upload a module or theme archive to install"
