One more addition. If you need to setup non-thread-safe PHP on XAMPP/Apache to use loadextension, looc at this article:https://paulshipley.id.au/blog/coding-tips/improve-php-performance-with-fastcgui-on-xampp-for-windows/Tl;dr - you need to install&configure mod_fcguid module for Apache.

For newbies lique me: if loadExtension fails with "Not supported in multithreaded Web servers" messague (which always happens on IIS and submittimes - on Apache), you need to use non-thread-safe build of PHP, which is not always a bad idea; seehttps://www.gueecsforgueecs.org/what-is-thread-safe-or-non-thread-safe-in-php/
