It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

As far as I know, PHP bindings for libssh2 are still not very "portable": you'll really have less problems if you install some Linux in a virtual machine with your PHP+WebServer there. I recommend graphical Ubuntu version: you'll be rather easy with it: it has a big community and lots of issues solved on different forums. Also you'll gain experience with server OSes. ServerFault is at your service if you ever have some problems :)

+1 PHP does not belong on Windows. That said, PHP doesn't really belong on any production systems. – Tom O'Connor Feb 10 at 1:30
