I trying to install ionCube on Xampp on Windows 10. Facing this error every time
ionCube Loader Wizard
**
Please note that the following problem currently exists with the ionCube Loader installation: The necessary zend_extension line could not be found in the configuration.
**
To use files that have been protected by the ionCube PHP Encoder, a component called the ionCube Loader must be installed.
At the current time the ionCube Loader requires PHP to be built with VC6/VC9/VC11/VC14/VC15. Your PHP software has been built using . Supported builds of PHP are available from PHP.net.

Copy loader-wizard.php in htdocs folder then run it, it will give you all instruction you need to follow. Follow them as instructed. I have struggled to install ioncube loader for more than 4 days searching, after running loader-wizard.php it gave me everything I need to know.
Note: You must use the right loader version as your php version. eg. for php7.2 loader should be ioncube_loader_win_7.2.dll
The link to download correct loader is provided in loader-wizard.php.
That`s everything you need.

Important: IonCube Loader's latest version 10.3.9 supports only PHP 7.3. for Windows 10. You have to download the XAMPP version for PHP 7.3 for Windows 10. Ioncube installed for PHP 7.4 version not working
Extract ioncube into htdocs ( XAMPP ) Open loader-wizard.php from ioncube folder >> loader-wizard.php Instractions
Copy
ioncube_loader_win_7.3.dll
toC:/xampp/php/ext/
>> Test loader
Follow instructions Edit php.ini
Loader not installed. RESTART XAMPP APACHE SERVER
ionCube loader version 10.3.9 for PHP 7.3 is Installed Successfully
