How can install mcrypt in xampp for windows 10

[fernando_cuellar]

if someone can help me, to install mcrypt and modify php

Hi @fernando_cuellar,

I guess you have a major problem. Php 7.2 isn't supported yet.

Also, I guess mcrypt is enabled by default with Xampp. Am I right?

Hello @fernando_cuellar
Php 7.2 is not yet supported, you will have to download one lower version of XAMPP.
about mcrypt extensions, you just need to open pho.ini file and remove the comment from starting of that line.

It will work

Here is the solution **mcrypt error** for PHP 7.2 + versions In Xampp, wamp, etc
Just follow the below link and download ext in the "Dell List" section. like 7.4 Thread Safe (TS) x64
Unzip file and paste both (php_mcrypt.pdb, php_mcrypt.dll) files in PHP>ext folder. Next Edit the php.ini file and add the extension

extension=mcrypt

below "; Dynamic Extensions". Restart apache, it's work for me.

As others have stated you cannot install mcrypt in xampp because

Php 7.2 is not yet supported. You can also check the PHP manual,

which states that this feature was removed in PHP 7.2.0. So, it only

works on a lower version.
