Thanks! Here are results:

I have a feeling the magick.pm is probably not correct as I copied and pasted it from the other computer set-up that is working. So possibly I should uninstall magic and re-install through the xampp shell?

    Hi... I found an old post on evilroundabout that it is possible to use strawberry with xampp. Evidently the perl on xampp works fine but has severe problems with adding modules. So the article goes on to say make sure strawberry is in the system path and use cpan. I tried this today with hopes but got this:

    I did install im binaries possibly to the wrong directory? C:\xampp\htdocs\xampp\ImageMagick-7.0.10-Q16. I have no idea what to do now. I am using windows 10, apache 2.4.46 win64 (xampp), strawberry 5.28.2.1 64. Any suggestions?

      Do this. Ensure that the IM installation is in your PATH. Ensure you can find convert.exe where convert.exe. What does set PATH show from the command line?

        Hi... The first sentence in your reply is lined out. What does that mean? The path from the cmd is:
