Editing php.ini file

The php.ini file contains a list of many extensions with some of them disabled by default. The only one I had to enable was the openssl extension.

Here are the steps to enable that extension:

1. Open File Explorer and locate the php folder of the EasyPHP application. On Windows 10, it should be:
   C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-Devserver-16.1\eds-binaries\php
2. You will see two folders inside, one for PHP version 5.6.19 and one for the 7.0.4 version. Select the one the Apache server is using. If you are unsure, open the EasyPHP Dashboard and check the PHP number under "HTTP SERVER".
3. Open php.ini file in your favorite text editor and search for php_openssl.dll text. You should see that the extension is commented out:

   ;extension=php_openssl.dll

4. Uncomment that line by removing ; character and save the changes.
5. All that is left is to restart the Apache server and we are done.

After going through the steps above, the WordPress site on my development server was able to update plugins without any problem. If you still have issues, try also to enable curl extension extension=php_curl.dll.

Note: To restart the Apache, right-click on the EasyPHP notification icon, then select Open Dashboardto stop / start the Apache server.
