Hello,

I have developed a website and kept in folder c:/inetpub/wwwroot/asifarif/index.php, now how i will run this page using Apache and where i should kept my
website folder, the IIS is still stop.

There is program for visual configuring of apach, if does not help, send message here I will tell how to configure it.

It is not very ckear, why do you want .php rename to .html. Do you want .html files execute by php mashine?
