How to change max upload size for files in Wordpress 4.4 at xampp

I wanted to upload a template to wordpress 4.4 which is running on xampp but it says that I only can upload 2MB. I've googled the problem and found an information that i need to change the parameter upload_max_filesize=32M in the file php.ini. I doesn't found the file in the Wordpress folder but in the xampp folder I found a file called php.ini with the parameter in it and I changed the parameter but nothing happened.

What can I do to increase the max template upload space?

Have you tried this already? http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-increase-the-maximum-file-upload-size-in-wordpress/ It contains plenty of ways to increase the max upload size.

Make sure you increase post_max_size and upload_max_filesize, both limits.

So for example in PHP.ini: 

upload_max_filesize = 64M
post_max_size = 64M
max_execution_time = 300

Cause it may take longer to upload those files, you might want to increase max_execution_time as well. post_max_size is the maximum size for all POST body data. upload_max_filesize is a maximum size only for files that are POSTed. Other types of POST body data are not subject to this limit. See Brad's answer over here: PHP post_max_size vs upload_max_filesize, what is the difference?
