phpmailerHow can I install the missing openssl extension for the PHPMailer library?

1. Download the latest version of the openssl extension for your version of PHP from the PHP downloads page.
2. Unzip the downloaded file and copy the php_openssl.dll file into your php/ext directory.
3. Open your php.ini file and add the following line to the extensions section:

extension=php_openssl.dll

4. Restart your web server.
5. Verify that the extension is enabled by running the following code:

<?php
if (extension_loaded('openssl')) {
    echo 'Openssl extension is enabled';
}

Output example

Openssl extension is enabled

6. Finally, make sure that the PHP Mailer library is configured to use the openssl extension by setting the SMTPSecure option to ssl or tls in your code.
7. You can now use the PHPMailer library to send emails securely using the openssl extension.
