The installation was very easy for PWS, but when I got to the part about copying DLL files, I wondered why PHP didn't use the "App Paths" registry key, which I believe has officially replaced the PATH variable for Windows apps?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths

It would also be nice to pull the php.ini file from the folder where PHP is located, instead of the Windows folder.  Then we users wouldn't have to copy anything to other directories.  :)

(Thanks for a great package!)
