Here can be found a decent guide on installing Microsoft Exchange Server 2013:

https://practical365.com/how-to-install-exchange-server-2013/

NOTES:

Create a new folder, give it a relevant name, and then drag "Exchange2013-x64-cu23.exe" into the folder and run it. Change your directory in powershell to the folder in which the files were extracted (ensure you can see the file called "setup.exe"), and then run the following:

.\setup /PrepareAD /OrganizationName:"your organization name" /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
