Possibility to have a global php.ini file

[Ayesh]

Is there a way to have a global php.ini file that is included in all versions?

I have a multi-version PHP setup with Laragon 3.1.8, and for each new version, I edit the new php.ini directory to set certain INI settings back (max_execution_time for example). It would be great if we could have a /etc/php/php.ini file that is always included in addition to the default php.ini file.

Appreciate your time reading this and if you could shed a light.
Thank you.

@Ayesh , @varunsridharan : From Laragon 3.3+, you can use global php.ini:
When changing PHP version, Laragon will check and use usr\tpl\php.ini.tpl if it exists.
You can also use Quick Settings to change some frequent used settings quickly: https://forum.laragon.org/topic/1015/tutorial-how-to-manage-php-quick-settings

@varunsridharan : Just backup your current php.ini (rename to php.ini.bak). Then restart Apache/Nginx, Laragon will use your global php.ini file.

[varunsridharan]

Ok but the current php.ini is from the php source folder

@varunsridharan : That's right. Laragon will copy your global php.ini.tpl to php.ini in *E:....\bin\php\php-7.1.20....*
Tip: Laragon will correct wrong paths in your global php.ini.tpl so you don't need to worry about them.

@leokhoa I think u missunderstood

i use php-7.1.20 version and the path for it is below
E:\localhost\bin\php\php-7.1.20-Win32-VC14-x64
and the php.ini file that came by default with that zip file which i have downloaded it from the php site.
and also created a php.ini.tpl file in the path you said.
now you want me to delete the php.ini which came by default with the php source ?
