I downloaded php_xdebug-3.2.0-8.0-vs16-nts-x86_64.dll

dir php_xdebug-3.2.0-8.0-vs16-nts-x86_64.dll 01/10/2023 08:04 AM 290,304 php_xdebug-3.2.0-8.0-vs16-nts-x86_64.dll and copied that to C:\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug.dll Directory of C:\xampp\php\ext

01/10/2023 08:04 AM 290,304 php_xdebug.dll

Then turned on xdebug in php.ini with zend_extension = xdebug

But when I run php -i I get

Warning: Failed loading Zend extension 'xdebug' (tried: C:\xampp\php\ext\xdebug (The specified module could not be found), C:\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug.dll (The specified module could not be found)) in Unknown on line 0 phpinfo() PHP Version => 8.2.0

I picked the wrong dll to download. Use the Wizard Luke!

I did not use the wizard so I picked php_xdebug-3.2.0-8.0-vs16-nts-x86_64.dll which seemed close enough right? WRONG!

After 30 minutes of debugging I finally went to the https://xdebug.org/wizard page and that told me to download https://xdebug.org/files/php_xdebug-3.2.0-8.2-vs16-x86_64.dll. Once I coped that to the right location and renamed it it worked fine!
