Answer 1

I had the same problem. When I run a php file, the web browser showed me the php code instead of execute it. I had tried many times: uninstall/reinstall the wampserver64, working around the PHP/Apache settings/modules, etc. After 2 days: I realised that when I tried to run the php file within the notepad++ by pressing the default combination "ctrl + alt + shift + R" for chrome. It was trying to execute my php file like: "file///C:/wamp64/www/bla/bla.." in my chrome's address bar. That was my problem. I made the changes according to page Configuring Notepad++ to run php on localhost?. My problem was solved. But after 2 days..
