Alternative method of installing themes on Joomla!

While working on Joomla!, I faced a problem while installing a theme. Every time I installed it with the installer in the Admin Panel, got errors each time. So, I found an alternative method of doing that.

Here is the method:

I directly uploaded all the files to http://example.com/Joomla/templates
After that when I checked the Template Manager in Admin Panel, it showed the new theme
And after applying the theme, it worked perfectly for me
