On Windows, the default value is actually the value of
PHP_EXTENSION_DIR (which is basically undocumented[1]). That value
is actually PHP_PREFIX."\\ext", and the prefix can be configured
(--with-prefix) during build time. The official binaries use the
default (C:\php for non debug builds).
I think this is basically the same on other operating systems.
Not sure what to do about php.ini.

Description:
------------
php.ini on Windows (default, production):
; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
; http://php.net/extension-dir
;extension_dir = "./"
; On windows:
;extension_dir = "ext"
The issue is that default doesnt work on Windows. You have to uncomment extension_dir =
"ext", otherwise PHP wont run if you uncomment extensions.
Expected result:
----------------
Windows extensions work right away
