How to modify php.ini on localhost
  1. First of all, you need to turn on the software. In this case, it’s WAMP.

  2. Open your favorite code editor to create a .php file. In this case, we use Dreamweaver. Add this piece of code to the new file:

    
    		
    Modify_php_ini_on_localhost-1

    Save the file to your computer. You can name it info.php.

  3. Open the local Disk. Locate wamp folder, then open www folder. Copy this info.php file to wamp/www folder.

    Note: If you have another software, the location can be different:

    Modify_php_ini_on_localhost-2
  4. Open the browser. Type localhost/info.php in the address bar. You will see a table of available settings.

    Try to search with php.ini as the keyword. In Loaded Configuration File field, you will see the path to php.ini file. In this case, it’s C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.4.9\bin\php.ini. Just follow the path to find the file:

    Modify_php_ini_on_localhost-3

    Here is the php.ini file that you need to edit. Just open and edit the file, then save it:

    Modify_php_ini_on_localhost-4
