Normally, you take the ZIP file and unzip it into C:\PHP5 (or wherever
you want).

That's the installation done.

Then, you take a long look through the php.ini-production and
php.ini-development to see what you need to setup.

I'd recommend reading ...

http://docs.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.manual.php
and
http://docs.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.commandline.php

Thank you for those links. I had missed them completely on my first and second times through the manual.

I did it the easy way by renaming D:\php to php.5.2.10 and creating a new D:\php to extract the new version into. It is working, but now I have to see about those setup options.

Thank you,

Bob McConnell
