does anybody know where do i need to update the path to the php files, because if i change the folders name from c:\program files (x86)\IIS Express\v5.3 to c:\program files (x86)\IIS Express\v5.6 php files in webmatrix don't work anymore

i know, there are also iisexpress.exe *32 and iisexpresstray.exe *32 processes that start when i start webmatrix but they also end when i turn off webmatrix. php-cgi.exe doesn't. is there a way to automatically end it when it's not being used ? and do i also need the debug pack from here http://windows.php.net/download#php-5.6 ?

it works but there are two files: php.ini-development php.ini-production and i need to rename one of them into php.ini , which one ? Also a php-cgi.exe *32 shows up in the processes when i run a php file in webmatrix, but it stays there even after closing Webmatrix. Is that normal ?

here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7204758/php-thread-safe-and-non-thread-safe-for-windows the say to use thread safe for iis and non-thread safe for iis+fast cgi, so i guess i should go thread safe? also i couldn't find IIS in services so i realized i don't even have IIS turned on (no checkmarks in programs and features-turn windows features on or off) ? should it be on ?
