Using Xampp, with php scoop installed

Continuing the discussion from PROBLEM: Scoop is blocking my XAMPP:

Thanks to @famousmag for the previous topic, as it saved me :slight_smile:

First I need to clarify that I don't want to use both own server and Wappler local server at the same time, or change the project, nothing like that.

I have a problem where I can't start Xampp if Php is installed on Scoop.
(Not running, just installed)

The workaround:

scoop uninstall php
run Xampp
scoop install php

Then all works, but I need to do that everyday.

Have projects on Wappler local server, and have old projects on Own server

Anybody knows how both can coexist in windows?

If you want to be a detective you can use this program:

You can see exactly what XAMPP attempts to run, maybe it attempts to run PHP from scoop instead of XAMPP because it just uses whatever is on %PATH%
