curl is not working on php 5.4.3 of wamp server

I am using wamp server that installs php version 5.4.3 and I enabled curl extension, edited php.ini files to uncomment curl extensions lines but the problem is that when I try installing composer using console, it gives me a message that says "PHP Startup: unable to load dynamic library 'c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.3/ext/php_curl.dll", here is a screenshot of it

enter image description here

I followed instruction from different posts, downloaded curl versions from anindya but with no hope..

Thanks in advance for your time

It sounds like you are running a 32bit PHP and have downloaded a 64bit version of PHP_CURL. That wont work

This dll should come as standard with WAMP's PHP's.

Are you sure your problem was not that you forgot that when running PHP in CLI mode you have to configure it using the 'php.ini' file that lives in the c:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.3\php.ini

So if you uncomment the php_curl extension line in that file it should have worked, until you downloaded the wrong curl dll.

So get a 32bit curl dll for the correct version of php and try again.

Make sure your dll is compiled for the version of PHP you're using. So one compiled for 5.5 won't work on 5.4, etc. There's a link in this question that's relevant
