# Installation and troubleshooting for imagick

- Installation and troubleshooting for imagick | windows

Dependências ¶
Installation requirements on Windows ¶
Version information does not differ from that above. There are binaries available from http://www.imagemagick.org/ so that you can load this extension on Windows without need for a compiler.

Installation requirements on other platforms ¶
PHP >= 5.1.3 and ImageMagick >= 6.2.4 is required. The amount of file formats supported by Imagick depends entirely upon the amount of formats supported by your ImageMagick installation. For example, Imagemagick requires ghostscript to conduct PDF operations.

Windows 10 + Apache 2.4.37 + PHP 7.2.14 x64 vc15 ts
download:
https://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/snaps/imagick/3.4.3/php_imagick-3.4.3-7.2-ts-vc15-x64.zip
https://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/deps/ImageMagick-7.0.7-11-vc15-x64.zip
extract php_imagick.dll to ext/
extract ImageMagick-7.0.7 to one path
ADD ImageMagick-7.0.7/bin to SYSTEM PATH
ADD "extension=imagick" in php.ini
ADD LoadFile "/yourImageMagickPath/bin/CORE_RL_Magick++_.dll" in httpd.conf

Then it works.
=============
Today, I setup a new windows 10 1809 system + Apache 2.4.38 and found a new problem that cannot loaded imagick extension. But after I installed Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 from MS site, all work ok. And the operation `ADD LoadFile "/yourImageMagickPath/bin/CORE_RL_Magick++_.dll" in httpd.conf` is not need.

I've research this solution, here you will find all necessary libraries. Download this http://image_magick.veidrodis.com/image_magick/binaries/ImageMagick-6.6.2-10-Q16-windows-dll.exe

Find your DLLs here http://www.peewit.fr/imagick/

To know which library fit your needs easily run phpinfo()

There you find the following row e.g.

Compiler MSVC9 (Visual C++ 2008)

The MSVC9 tells you that it's compiled with Visual C9, so you need to download the VC9 version. Thats all.

Have nice day, takes me several hours of research.
