Description:
------------
Unzipped contents to a new PHP branch directory. Copied php.ini.development as 
php.ini then opened it side-by-side with previous php.ini (5.4.9) to ensure that 
the same settings had the same values to avoid hastily setting values for 
configurations I was not aware of.

I receive the following error message when starting my Apache server:

"PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:\Program 
Files\PHP\5.4.13\ext\php_soap.dll' - The specified procedure could not be 
found."

Navigating to that directory I can clearly see php_soap.dll. This is the only 
extension that will not load. I have also redownloaded PHP to ensure that this 
particular library was not corrupted.


php.ini:

extension_dir = "C:\Program Files\PHP\5.4.13\ext"

extension=php_soap.dll

Just tried that with apache 2.4.4 and php 5.4.13 on win8. I could reproduce this only if I set a relative path like extension_dir=ext, giving full path works. However that space in your path looks suspicious to me, though it worked for me on win8 too. Could you please try to remove the space from that path?
