Download cpanp.bat Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying cpanp.bat to your appropriate Windows system directory. Apache Friends typically does not release XAMPP BAT files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer.
