Answer 1

With Laragon, adding another PHP version is very easy. Here's how to add PHP 7.3

1. Download PHP: http://windows.php.net/downloads/releases/

In this case we download: https://windows.php.net/downloads/releases/php-7.3.0-Win32-VC15-x64.zip

---

2. Extract the downloaded to: {LARAGON_ROOT}\bin\php\php-7.3.0-Win32-VC15-x64

   C:\laragon
   -- bin
   ---- php
   -------- php-7.3.0-Win32-VC15-x64
   -------- .............

---

3. Select the new version at: Laragon Menu > PHP > Version > php-7.3.0-Win32-VC15-x64

Very easy huh. That's all!

Please be noticed about PHP Version (so you can add new extensions properly)
- x64 means 64-bit
- x86 means 32-bit
- nts means Non Thread Safe

If something's wrong, please check and install correspond VC Redist (VC11, VC14, VC15...)
