. You should see the WAMP homepage.
Click on the “phpMyAdmin” link to open the phpMyAdmin interface. This is a web-based tool for managing MySQL databases.
Create a new file called test.php
in the root directory of your web server. This directory is usually located in C:\wamp64\www

depending on the version of WAMP you have installed.
In test.php
, add the following code:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Save the file and navigate to http://localhost/test.php
