Xampp wrong htdocs












0















I removed old version and did fresh install of xampp on my pc. all seems to work fine but there is one very strange issue, instead of loading files from new directory htdocs xampp somehow manages to connect to old directory and is loading files from there.



Directories and even partitions of two installs are totally different, previously it was installed on D:/ now it is installed on E:/




  • Previous version is removed through uninstall (full uninstall just kept htdocs )

  • Control Panel is launched through E:/ disk checked (Even Explore button on left opens new xampp directory from E:/

  • despite above localhost loads page from D:/htdocs (Old Directory)

  • it is not caching issue tried with different browsers/devices


Xampp:xampp-win32-7.1.25-0-VC14-installer



OS: Windows 10 pro
