How to install mcrypt php 7.2.3 extension in xampp for windows?

You don't
See http://php.net/manual/en/intro.mcrypt.php
This feature was DEPRECATED in PHP 7.1.0, and REMOVED in PHP 7.2.0.
Alternatives to this feature include:
- Sodium (available as of PHP 7.2.0)
- OpenSSL
They didn't include this one
- PHPSecLib
But it's a third party library so I can't say I blame them, I've used it for some time and never heard anything bad about it yet.

My PHP Version 7.2.3 and xampp pack do not have the mcrypt extension. It is not mentioned in the phpinfo() neither in the php.ini file in order to enable it.
I have downloaded mcrypt from this link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mcrypt/ but I don't know how to integrate it as php extension. I need solution for xampp in windows please
