Reload SOAP extension locally in XAMPP

When we develop a new WooCommerce store locally, sooner or later the problem of missing SOAP extension in XAMPP comes. This SOAP extension is required, for example, when connecting DHL via WooCommerce Germanized Pro.

However, the problem can be solved in a minute:

1. XAMPP Control Panel
   On the Apache server, click on “Config” and select “php.ini” from the menu.
2. Search for the extension “extension=soap” and activate it.
   To activate, simply remove the semicolon (;) before “extension=soap”.
3. Save php.ini
4. Restart Apache server

That was it! Now the SOPA extension should be loaded and work smoothly.
