You can set which directory you want like this: pear -d php_dir=c:\bleh install Cache Note that the registry of installed packages is also stored in this directory, so if you do "pear -d php_dir=c:\bleh list" and "pear list" they will give different results. Add the "-s" option before the "-d ..." to make the php_dir setting permanent. - Stig
