Magento PHP Extension intl - XAMPP

[melvinhagberg1]

I tried to install Magento on localhost (XAMPP) for the first time today. As Magento installer does the Readiness Check an error occurs, as it is missing PHP Extension intl. I have done research, but all I can find is to remove ; from ";extension=php_intl.dll" in php.ini in etc folder. This does not work (tried to restart XAMPP and the computer several times). I am on macOS Sierra.

This is driving me crazy, please help.

Hi, what you suggested seems correct so I would recommend ensuring the xampp is restarted after that. That's also what this post suggests: https://www.magestore.com/magento-2-tutorial/how-to-install-magento-2-on-localhost-via-xampp/
