 * So I don’t play games with destroying my site on the server, I have a test site
   with a localhost ie xampp. Loaded a fresh copy of wp 3.81. Plan on throwing a
   backup ie migration there. The plugin to do this is my usual updraft plus premium
   system. I have to upload that but i get the usual max file size of 2 megs. File
   is about 2.5. I go into the php.ini file in xampp edit the post max file size
   to 40M and the upload max file size to 30M since the former has to be larger.
   Still, I cant upload the plugin. Any suggestions? Thanks to all.

 * Follow up. I was editing the production and development php.ini. Was reading 
   on stackflow that is an issue with windows. The REAL php.ini is not labelled 
   as such; just “config settings”. I went back and put default values in devel 
   and prod php and changed the actual php.ini regarding post max size and upload
   max file size and it still won’t upload. Yes, I closed xampp so it would accept
   changes and restarted it. Everything else is fine with the localhost except THIS.
   Thanks

 * I hope this helped others but please disregard. I have never used xampp before.
   Apparently for it to load the correct settings one has to log out of apache and
   sql settings than restart.

 * BTW, IMHO the xampp win interface has a lot to be desired.
