phpMyAdmin Error: The mbstring extension is missing. Please check your PHP configuration
I have already tried all of the solutions on this and none of them have worked for me. I am not sure what else to do.

I was in a hurry so it's not necessarily the best solution, however it's really very simple,
None of the answers worked for me on stackoverflow
I simply changed windows user session,
Uninstall and install MAMP on this new session and everything worked again

I have seen this problem. This error appears when I upgraded by 15.10 to 16.04 or installed 16.04.I resolved my problem by running this command and system restart. Just run these command
sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin php-mbstring php-gettext
sudo service apache2 restart
Or you can follow this post...

It had worked for me - for xamp3.2.2
php7.0.1
changes in php.ini
1- extension_dir="C:\xampp\php\ext" //give the full path where your ext folder is located
2- ;extension=php_mysqli.dll //uncomment this (remove semicolon)
3- save
and restart
apache !

I spent a lot of time trying all the options. Finally solved it by moving the php.ini file back to the php folder from the apache folder that I had moved it to after installing php.
