How to install PHP on IIS now WebPI is retired

Question

WebPI was deprecated in July 2022, what is the best way to

• install PHP fresh on IIS
• update PHP on IIS

Both of these 'learn' documents are out of date

• Install IIS 8 and PHP on WS2012
• Install and configure PHP (using WebPI)

Ideally this would be as automated and easy as WebPI was.

Thanks

You can get PHP from the php web site, and iis has a php manager that can be used to manage one or many PHP installations compatible with the latest version of IIS - 10, easily install, configure, manage and troubleshoot one or many PHP versions on the same IIS server.
