Apache Php.ini Missing

Hello Everyone,
This is my first post here.

I have installed WAMP and tried to install Prestashop on there. During the installation they were asking me to "Install and/or enable a PHP accelerator (highly recommended)." I searched Google and downloaded the relevant file. Now I had to add a few lines to the Php.ini on Apache and unfortunately I couldn't find it.

I loaded the Phpinfo.php on localhost and it is showing the Loaded Configuration File path is :

C:\wamp64\bin\apache\apache2.4.23\bin\php.ini

but literally I can't find it there and neither from the WAMP Settings as well.
Any help about this will be very much appreciated.
Thanks in Advance!
Raj

First, which PHP Accelorator are you talking about? I assume you mean a cacheing extension?

Second, you access the php.ini file using the menus, so

- left click wampmanager->PHP->php.ini

this will load php.ini into your default or configured text editor.

Yes, that is related to caching.
But there isn't suppose to be 2 Php.ini files? one in Apache Folder and the other inside the Php folder as I have read and seen on other places.
Do you think that process will work out if I use your process?
I also saw this process and tried but the APC.dll is not loading :
[www.devside.net]

Kindly suggest an alternative

Please be specific! WHICH ACCELERATOR are you trying to activate?

There IS SUPPOSED to be 2 `php.ini` file!

The one in the apache/bin folder is used by Apache and is the one that will be edited when you use
- left click wampmanager->PHP->php.ini

The one is the php folder is used when you run the PHP CLI (Command Line Interpreter), this one IS NOT amended when you use
- left click wampmanager->PHP->php.ini
and has to be amended manually
