Remove the comment by removing semicolon so that the line looks like this: extension=openssl dll libraries.īy default, all these extensions are commented out, but we need to enable a few of them.

This is the folder containing various PHP extension. We uncommented the line by removing semicolon at the beginning and added path to ext folder, which in our case is C:\php8\ext. Open php.ini-development in the text editor so we can make the following modifications:Ĭhange it to this: extension_dir = "C:\php8\ext" We will make some changes to it and then save it as php.ini file. The main difference is that in the development version, the warnings and errors are not hidden, so we will use that one. Instead, you should see two configuration files, php.ini-development and php.ini-production.

The extracted files inside C:\php8 will not have the php.ini file. The php.ini is a default PHP configuration file where we declare changes to the PHP behavior.
