On my Windows 10 machine, I run some PHP scripts that call API functions on a game, Torn. Torn allows and encourages the call of such API.

Since a few days, all my command line scripts stopped working from my machine.

I verified this both running them from the command line, and setting a quick web server with php -s

Both modalities were working earlier.

The scripts running on a separate websites still work.

I suspect the cause may be a recent Windows update.

What am I doing wrong, and how do I fix this?

I tried with PHP version 7.4.6 and 8.4.4, CLI, NTS, x64

Here is the code, and the result:

<?php

$jsonurl = "https://api.torn.com/faction/16335?selections=basic&key=aaa";
$json = file_get_contents( $jsonurl ) ; //gets output of API
$decodedString = json_decode( $json, true ) ; //parses API JSON output
print_r( $decodedString ) ;
?>

    Your PHP is too old. Upgrade it. Commented Feb 13 at 8:33

    Well, that's strange, I just tested it with PHP 8.2 on Windows 10 and it worked... Commented Feb 14 at 8:20
